The total cost of the pendant including tax is $703.45

Percentage is always in per 100, the sales tax rate is 10%.

The original price of the pendant is $639 .50

The tax on the pendant will be

10/100 Ă— 639.50

= $63.95

The total cost including tax will be

original cost + tax

= 639.50 + 63.95

= $703.45

Therefore the total of the pendant including tax is $703.45
