Question

Help again:)!

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

Answer 1

The final answer is $470.40.

Explanation:

210 x 2 = $420

To find the final price including tax, we must find 12% of $420.

420 x 0.12 = $50.4

Now, we must finalize the price by adding the tax to the price without tax.

$420 + $50.4 = $470.40

Therefore, the final cost for the hotel room is $470.40.

Hope this helps you out! :)

Answer 2

$235.2

Explanation:

$210 * (100%+12%)

= $210 * 112%

= $210 * 1.12

= $235.2

Hope this helped!
