Question

Nathan bought a pair of boots for $79.95 and 2 shirts for $19.50 each. The sales tax is 8.25%. How much

did Nathan pay for all the items, including tax?

Answer 1

$
`128.76`

Explanation:

To find the total amount, you need to add up all the things he bought.

Boots - 79.95

2 shirts - 19.50 each

Add up the total of the shirts.

`19.5 + 19.5 = 39`

Next, add up the total of the shirt and boots.

`79.95 + 39 = 118.95`

Then, multiply the total by the sales tax.

`118.95 * .0825 = 9.81`

Add that to the total.

`118.95 + 9.81 = 128.76`
