rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

what is the sales tax rate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

doesn't have one

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

bc every state is different

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it doesn't say

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

If sales tax = .94 then the rate is about 6% If sales tax = 1.88 then the rate is about 12% If sales tax = 2.60 then the rate is about 16.66% If sales tax = 9.36 then the rate is about 60% I'd guess that the sales tax rate would probably be about 6% so the answer is PROBABLY .94

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you do that if you don't mind me asking

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

.94/15.60 * 100 = 6.02564103% (I think you can figure out the other 3.
