Answer:
$3.36
Explanation:
The amount of tax is the product of the price and the tax rate.
tax = $42.00 × 8%
Some calculators and all spreadsheets can calculate this directly. If yours cannot, you can use the decimal equivalent of 8%.
tax = 42.00 × 0.08 = 3.36 . . . . dollars
The tax Jack will pay is $3.36.
