Question

Rocio bought a $12 shirt. The sales tax
rate was 8.25%. What is the final
price?

Answer 1

$12.99

Explanation:

initial cost of the shirt = $12

sales tax on the shirt = 8.25%

So the final price of the shirt would be ,

initial cost + 8.25% of initial cost

That would be,

$12 + 8.25% of $12

$12 + $0.99

$12.99

And we are done!
