Question

An item cost $8. 50 if tax is 9. 25% what is the items final cost

Answer 1

$9.28625

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find how much is 9.25% of $8.50 as follows

$8.50 x 9.25 /100 = 78.625/100 = $0.78625

Then, the final cost will be the initial cost of $8.50 plus the tac of $0.78625.

So, the final cost will be

$8.50 + $0.78625 = $9.28625.

So, the answer is $9.28625
