6. Mr. Phuong stayed in a hotel room for 2
nights that cost $210. The hotel room tax
rate in the city is 12%. What is the total cost
for the hotel room? (Example 2)

Answer 1

The total cost of the hotel room is $235.20

Explanation:

Here, we want to find the total cost of the hotel room

Total cost of hotel room = Cost of hotel room for the two nights + tax

Tax = 12%

Total cost = 210 + 12% of 210

Total cost = 210 + (12/100 * 210)

Total cost = 210 + 25.2

Total cost = $235.2
