Question

The Ipad that Ms. Hopham would like to buy for research is $1,299. This week it is on sale for $990, and the sales tax is 6%. How much will she have to pay in total?

Answer 1

Turn the percentage into a decimal.

6% = 0.06

Multiply.

990 * 0.06 = $54.9 (sales tax)

Add.

990 + 54.9 = $1,049.40 (total price)

Best of Luck!
