a TV has a listed price of 813.95 before tax if the sales tax rate is 6.5% find a total cost of the tv with the sales tax included.

Respuesta :

The tax is 6.5% OF the listed price. "OF" in math means multiply.

First convert the percentage to a decimal 

6.5% = .065

Then multiply .065*813.95 = 52.90675. This is the tax.

Simply add the tax onto the cost

813.95 + 52.90675 = $866.86 (rounded)

you have to find out what 6.5% of 813.95 is and then add it. so 813.95*0.065= 52.91 (rounded since it’s working with money). you then add 813.95+52.91=866.86 as your final cost with tax.
