Answer:

If the sales tax rate is 7.25% in California, I would pay $128.70 for a coat that costs $120.00.

Explanation:

If the sales tax rate is 7.25%, and the coat costs $120.00, to know the final price of the product we have to calculate the tax amount and add it to the original price.

-SALES TAX RATE: 120 / 100 x 7.25 = 8.7

-FINAL PRICE: 120 + 8.7 = $128.70
