Answer:

$14.44

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure it's 14.44 because It says only the sales tax not the whole price together so you would take 8% turn it into .08 and multiply 180.50 by .08 and get 14.44 which is the sales tax. And if you were looking for the total it would be 194.94 but that's not what this question is asking(:
