Question

A bike cost $125 and has a 6% tax. What will your final cost be?

Answer 1

Answer: 132.5

Explanation: 6 Percent can be written as 0.06 as 0.06 is 6% of 1.00. If we take 0.06 and multiply it by 125 you get 7.5. This is the amount owed for tax, now add the tax amount by the bike cost and you get the final amount due, $132.5
