Question

a new ipad costs $101.99 in the store. what would your total cost be if the sales tax is 7.5% round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary

Answer 1

$109.64

Explanation:

The price after applying the tax would be the sum between the original value and the value equivalent to the established percentage, just like this:

`\begin{gathered} p=101.99+101.99\cdot(7.5)/(100) \\ p=101.99+7.65 \\ p=109.64\cong\text{ \$109.6}4 \end{gathered}`
