Question

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

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

Answer 1

Hi there! To solve this question, all you have to do is multiply the price of the camera (90) by 106% (1.06). You always add another 100% to the tax rate, because doing that will take you straight to the final price and say you time. 90 * 106% (1.06) is 95.4. The total amount Ben paid for the digital camera is $95.40.
