Question

The camera cost $540 if the sales tax is 7.2% what is the tax change and the total cost?

Answer 1

38.88

Explanation:

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.

P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.
