Question

does any one know how to do sales tax

Answer 1

What is the total (ignoring sales tax)?

Answer 2

so the total bill (ignoring tax) is $32.20 and the sales tax is 6% ?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

6 % is .06 just multiply that to the sales
ie buying 30 dollars worth of stuff
30 times .06=1.80 is the sales tax

Answer 5

so you would then add 6% of 32.20 onto 32.20

6% of 32.20 is (6/100)*32.20 = 1.932

Therefore, 6% of $32.20 is $1.93

Add this to the total to get

$32.20 + $1.93

$34.13


This means that the total (including the sales tax) is $34.13

Answer 6

A short cut is to multiply the total by 1.06 and you'll get the same answer (and save a step or two)
