Question

A Walgreens purchase comes to $28. Find the total cost if a 2% sales tax is included.

Answer 1

The answer is $28.56

Explanation:

To find the 2% sales tax, you need to multiply the 2% or 0.02 by 28.

Doing this will give you 0.56.

Then you add 0.56 to 28 to get 28.56, hence, $28.56 is the total cost.

Hope it helps!
