Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ticket price of jacket = $199

Final price after addition of sales tax = $208.95

Percentage sales tax on the jacket =?

Final price after addition of sales tax = price of jacket + amount of sales tax paid

208.95 = 199 + amount of sales tax paid

amount of sales tax paid = 208.95 - 199

amount of sales tax paid = $9.95

Let Percentage of sales tax = x

(x / 100) * 199 = 9.95

199x / 100 = 9.95

199x = 995

x = 5

Hence percent sales tax paid = 5%
