Question

A refrigerator at a home appliance store cost $540.00. What is the total cost of the refrigerator after a 6% sales tax is applied

Answer 1

$572.4 because 6% of the original cost, $540.00, is $32.4. So, after adding that to the original price you would get $572.4.

Answer 2

572.40

Explanation:

First find the tax

540 * .06 = 32.4

Add this to the original cost

540+32.4 =572.40
