tax rate is 6%. Beth

purchases a washing

machine at $420.00

and a dryer for

$360.00

How much will Beth's total be

including state sales tax

Answer 2

Answer: $826.8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we add the amount of money that the machines sold for:

$420 + $360 = $780

Next, we multiply it by the sales tax, 6%,

$780 x 6%(0.06) = $46.80

Finally, we add this to the total:

$780 + $46.80 = $826.80

Alternatively, you can add the total sales and multiply by 106% using the 2-step method.
