Answer 1

$324

Step-by-step explanation:

(1.08)(300) = 324

Answer 2

The total price of the bicycle including sales tax is $324.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a bicycle = $300

Rate of sales tax = 8%

Amount of tax = 8% x 300

=
`(8)/(100)` x 300

= 8 x 3

= 24

Cost of bicycle including tax= Price of cycle + Amount of tax = 300+24=324

= $324
