Answer:

$455.80

Explanation:

Given the following question:

6% of 430

To find the answer we must first use the formula to calculate percentages to find 6% of 430. Then we add that answer to the initial price of the TV to have our final answer.


(p* n)/(100)

(6*430)/(100)

6*430=2580

2580/100=25.8

=25.80

Now add the answer to the initial price of the TV:

430

430+25.80=455.8

=455.80

The cost of the TV after a 6% tax is "$455.80."

Hope this helps.
