Question

kyle paid $2,800 plus 7% tax. What is his total?

Answer 1

So, the tax is 7% of 2800. how much is this?

$\frac{7}{100}*2800=7*28= 196$

so, Kyle will have to pay 196 taxes.

This means that Kyle will pay the original prize (2800) and additionally 196:

2800+196=2996. This is the total amount to be paid.
