Question

HELP ME URGENTLY!!!

A certain backpack costs $22, and there is 4% sales tax. What is one way to determine what the amount of sales tax will be? Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the statement.

Answer 1

$22×.04%=.88

so the answer is .88cents

sorry, I don't see a drop down menu to select from.

Answer 2

$0.88

Explanation:

cost per 1% = 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22

⇒ cost of 4% = 4 x 0.22 = 0.88

Or

4% = 4/100 = 0.04

⇒ 4% of 22 = 0.04 x 22 = 0.88
