Question

I'm sorry if I put this in English instead of math. That was an accident, but I really need help:

Answer 1

$1.15

Step-by-step explanation:

I will pay $1.15 in taxes.

Below is how I mathematically got the answer:

Price of basketball = $20

Percentage sales tax = 5.75%

Therefore, to get the amount of tax that will be paid on the basketball:

$20 × 5.75% = $20 × 0.0575 = $1.15.

So, the amount that I will pay is $1.15.
