Question

A snorkeling mask is priced at

$35.00 and the air tube is priced
at $12.00. What is the total
including a 7% tax?

Answer 1

Answer: $50.29

Explanation:

$35.00 + $12.00 = $47.00 x .07 = $3.29 + 47.00 = $50.29

Answer 2

$50.29

Explanation:

First, find the total without tax by adding the two items together

35+12=47

Next, find the sales tax

Convert 7% to a decimal

7/100=0.07

Multiply the decimal by the total

47*0.07=3.29

Lastly, add the tax and the total without tax

47+3.29=50.29

So, the total with tax is $50.29

Hope this helps! :)
