Answer: $742

Explanation:

Always remember: to calculate the tax of a total price simply multiply by the respective percent in decimal form and add it to the total.

6% in decimal form is:
(6)/(100)=0.06

So we have our total: $700 plus our total times the tax percentage. 700(0.06)

700+0.06(700)

700+42

$742
