Question

A dress that regularly costs $92 and has tax of
8%. How much is the tax charge for this dress?

Answer 1

7.36$ tax.

When finding the whole amount of dollars to the percentage, multiply the whole number(92) by the tax percentage(0.08) which is a decimal for this case.

`92 * 0.08 = 7.36\`

Optionally, find the tax plus the whole number.

`92 + 7.36 = 99.36\`
