Sorry if I’m wrong

Answer:

Firstly, divide the tax rate by 100: 6/100 = 0.06 (tax rate as a decimal). Note: to easily divide by 100, just move the decimal point two spaces to the left.

Now, find the tax value by multiplying tax rate by the before tax price:

tax = 39.99 × 0.06

tax = 2.4 (tax value rouded to 2 decimals)

Add tax to the before tax price to get the final price:

The final price including tax = 39.99 + 2.4 = 42.39
