Question

You have $3,000 to spend on a laptop. Suppose the tax rate is 6.78%. What is the maximum you can spend on a laptop if you know you will also be purchasing a $25 case? Explain

Answer 1

Answer:

$3228.4

Step-by-step explanation:

laptop=$3000

tax rate=6.78%

case=$25

$3000÷100=$30x6=$180

$30÷100=0.3x78=23.4

180=23.4=203.4=tax

203.4=25=228.4=tax and case

228.4=3000=3228.4=total price

hope this helps, have a good day.
