Question

The price of an item is 0.89. The sales tax rate is 7%. What is the total of the item, including tax?

Answer 1

.95

Explanation:

First we need to find the tax

tax = price * tax rate

= .89 * 7%

= .89* .07

.06

The tax is .06

The total price is the price plus the tax

total price = price + tax

= .89+.6

= .95
