Answer:

sales tax is a tax placed on things you buy. the tax is a percent of money that goes to the government when you buy a product.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have an item that's $100 and there's a 7% sales tax, then the money going to the government is $7. meaning you'd have to pay a total of $107 for the product
