(reverse tax calculator)

"For Example:

If your total receipt amount was $57.98, and you paid 1.07 percent in sales tax, you’d simply plug those numbers into our calculator to find out that your original price before tax was $57.37. From there, it is a simple subtraction problem to figure out that you paid .61 cents in sales tax."
