Question

Tyler orders a meal that cost $15 if the tax rate is 6.6% how much will the sales tax be on Tyler's Meal?

Answer 1

Answer:

There would be $ 0.99 sales tax on the meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The cost of the meal ordered by him = $15,

sales tax rate percentage = 6.6%,

Thus, the amount of the sales tax = 6.6% of the cost of the meal

= 6.6% of 15

$=\frac{6.6\times 15}{100}$

$= \frac{99}{100}$

$= \ 0.99$
