Question

A ski hat is priced at $19.50 and a pair of ski boots are priced at $85.50. If the sales tax rate is 7%, then what is the total cost of the ski hat and ski boots ?

Answer 1

The total cost of the ski hat and the ski boots is $112.35.

Explanation:

First, we need to add the prices of the ski hat and the ski boots.

85.50 + 19.50 = $105

Now, we need to find 7% of $105, and then add it to the total.

105 x 0.07 = $7.35

105 + 7.35 = $112.35

Therefore, the total cost of the ski hat and the ski boots is $112.35.

Hope this helps! :D
