Question

Your charged 6% sales tax, you purchase a new bicycle and pay $27 in sales tax. What is the price of the bicycle?

Answer 1

If the $27 is sales tax, then that is only 6%. You need to know how much the total of the bike is with the $27 only being 6% of the total cost. The bike costs $350.

Answer 2

to answer this you would multiply 27 and 0.06 and that would give you $1.62. Then you add the main price and the tax price. $27+$1.62 is

$28.62
