Question

A gaming console that is $300 plus 8% tax. What is the final cost of the console? (Round to the nearest cent)​

Answer 1

Answer: $324.00

Explanation:

Convert 8% to decimals. You can do this by dividing by 100

`(8)/(100)=0.08`

Calculate 8% of 300 (0.08*300) and add 300 (+300)

`0.08(300)+300\\24+300\\324`
