Question

Clint is buying a Mets hoodie. The hoodie costs $75 but he will have to

Answer 1

Answer:

$7.13

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost with tax, multiply 75 by 1.095

75(1.095)

= 7.125

So, the hoodie will cost approximately $7.13

Answer 2

$82.13

The other respondent’s equation works and is quickest, but their answer was not correct.
75 x 1.095 = 82.13

You can also multiply 75 by 0.095 (9.5% converted to a decimal), which is 7.125, and add that to the $75 price to get $82.125, rounded to $82.13
