Answer:

the number of packs of cards sold is 810,000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of packs of cards sold is shown below:

Tax revenue = tax per good × goods

$48,600 = 0.06 × Q

Q =$48,600 ÷ 0.06

Q = 810,000

hence, the number of packs of cards sold is 810,000 units

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered
