Question

irene purchases a refrigerator for 500.00 in lowa where the tax is 6 percent what is the sale tax

Answer 1

$30
To find 6% of 500, convert 6% in to a decimal (0.06) and multiply the decimal times the amount of the purchase. Your final price will be $530 because after finding out the sales tax amount, you have to add it to the amount of purchase.
