Answer:

$26.29

So, the total value after considering the sales tax rate, the value would be

= Purchase value of tools + Purchase value of tools × sales tax rate

= $24.80 + $24.80 × 6%

= $24.80 + $1.488

= $26.288 or $26.29

Simply we multiply the sales tax rate by the purchase value of tools and then added the purchase value of tools so that the correct amount can come
