Question

You bought a pair of sneakers for $150. There was a 10% sales tax on the sneakers. How much did you pay in total after tax?

Answer 1

The sales tax on the sneakers was $150 * (10/100) = $<<150*(10/100)=15>>15.

Therefore, you paid a total of $150 + $15 = $<<150+15=165>>165 after tax.

Answer 2

You payed $165 after tax
