Answer 1

1.76%

Explanation:

Given

Original price of the book = $21

Price after sales percentage = $20.63

Discount = 21-20.63

Discount = $0.37

sale tax percentage = discount/original price × 100%

sale tax percentage = 0.37/21 × 100

sale tax percentage = 37/21

sale tax percentage = 1.76%

Hence the sale tax percentage is 1.76%
