Question

a camera has a listed price of 661.95 before tax if the sales tax rate is 6.5 find the total cost of the camera with sales tax

Answer 1

661.95 ( 1.065 ) = $704.98

You pay 100 % of the cost of the camera + 6.5% of that cost for tax.

Written as decimals, 100% = 1.00 and 6.5% = .065

When you add those together, you have 1.065
