jacket cost $79.49 total , the tax was 6% what what the cost before the tax. how do you figure that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$79.49 * .94= 74.68

OpenStudy (sono):

sorry what is .94

OpenStudy (anonymous):

94%

i would multiply .06 x 79.49 and subtract the answer from 79.49 79.49x.06=4.77 79.49-4.77=$74.72

OpenStudy (anonymous):

opps 79.49 * .94=74.72

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same as doing 79.49*.06=4.77 and subtract from price after tax

OpenStudy (anonymous):
