Answer:

The answer would be four. (4)

Explanation:

If you have $80 and you add a 5% tax, you most likely have to multiply.

When you multiply the 5% to the $80, you get four. Meaning the 5% is equal to 4. Your answer in total to the taxes would be $84.00.

I hope this helped solve your problem. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! :)

The tax would be $4 because to get the tax you must multiple 80 by 0.05.
