Question

Juan buys a dollhouse priced at $27.75. If the sales tax is 8%, how much tax will Juan pay?

Answer 1

Therefore, Juan will pay $2.22 in sales tax.

Explanation:

To find the amount of tax Juan will pay, we can first calculate 8% of the price of the dollhouse, and then round to the nearest cent.

8% of $27.75 = 0.08 × $27.75 = $2.22

Therefore, Juan will pay $2.22 in sales tax.
