David is buying a cheese wheel priced at $650 before tax. The store charges 8% sales tax. What is the total price, including tax, David is paying for the cheese wheel?

Answer 1

The total price of the cheese wheel is $650.00 + ($650.00 x 8%) =

$650.00 + $52.00 =

$702.00

I hope this helps you to see the theory behind the answer.

Answer 2

8% of 650 =0.08*650=52

total price, including tax, David is paying for the cheese wheel = 650+52 =$702
