Question

Noah bought a digital camera for $90. The tax rate is 6%.

What is the total amount Noah paid for the digital camera?

Answer 1

$95.4

Explanation:

6% in decimal form is 0.06

we need to find what 6% of 90 is to see how much sales tax there is on this item

0.06*90=5.4

the sales tax is 5.4

5.4 is 6% of 90 so we need to add 5.4 to 90

90+5.4=95.4

$95.4---total amount noah paid(normal price+ sales tax)
