Question

Jack wants to buy a coat that costs $74.95. The sales tax rate in his city is 6,4%. What is the total cost for the coat? Round to the nearest cent

Answer 1

$79.7468

Explanation:

6.4% of 74.95 is 4.7968, since 6.4 * 74.95 is 479.68, and if you divide that by 100, you will get 4.7968. 4.7968 + 74.95 = $79.7468
