Question

If the sales tax rate is 7.5% in the state that you live in how much would you pay for a pair of shoes that cost $39.00

Answer 1

$39 x 7.5% = $2.925
$39 + $2.925 = $41.925
Since the sales price is 7.5% you have to multiply the normal price, $39, by 7.5% which equals $2.925 and when you add to the normal price you get your answer.
