Answer:
$1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: the cost of the shopping trip is $25.00
They want us to find the tax amount at 5%.
Saying that we need to find the 5% of the $25.00.
Convert 5% to 0.05, then take it times 25.
$25 x 0.05 = $1.25
That should give you the 5% of the $25.
If you add $25.00 and the $1.25 together, it should give you $26.25, included with the tax.
