Answer 2

Cost Including tax would be $318

Explanation:

Given:

Price of laptop = $300

Sales tax = 6% of price

To Find:

Cost with tax = ?

Solution:

Cost with tax = Price of laptop + Value of tax

We have to find the value of tax

Value of tax = 6% of Price

putting the value

Value of tax = 6 % * $300

`=(6)/(100)*300`

= $18

Now Cost with tax = Price of laptop + Value of tax

Putting in the value

Cost with tax = 300 + 18

= $318

So Cost Including tax would be $318
