Question

Ben must pay 8.75% sales tax on the sale price of his bicycle. What is his total cost of the bicycle including tax?

Sale price:$155

Answer 1

8.75/100=0.0875

155*0.0875=13.5625

Now we know the tax, we can add it on to the sale price of the bicycle.

155+13.5625= 168.5625

Rounded to the nearest cent: 168.56

So the bicycle with tax costs $168.56
