Total cost of icecream without cost be x


\\ \sf\longmapsto x+0.0635x=21270


\\ \sf\longmapsto 1.0635x=21270


\\ \sf\longmapsto x=21270/1.0635=20000

Amount to be paid


\\ \sf\longmapsto 21270-20000=1270

Answer:

$1,270

Explanation:

let x be the total amount of ice cream sold without tax

x + (x*0.0635)=21270

1.0635x=21270

x=20,000

so the amount he needs to send to state is

21270-20000

1,270
