Question

Raymond bought a used truck for 18800 at the sales tax in the state of 7% what was the final price for his car

Answer 1

Solution

For this case we can solve the problem with the following ratio:

$\frac{18800}{100}=\frac{x}{107}$

And the final value would be:

$x=107\cdot\frac{18800}{100}=20116$

then the final answer would be 20116
