@Hero

Hey wait lol
I am not sure about it
@Shadow
oh lmao
@Angle @ShadowWolf
hmmmm I think it might be 9%
Did you google it?
no
What you googled is something different and different numbers.
i tried googling it, nothing popped up
If anything u should do what Allison said
0.4%
9%?
No no
Hold on sheesh
Okay the formula should be total cost minus cost divided by cost
@nuts
Either 4% or .04%
Or neither, ya know I hate math (':
same i suck at math :/
96%???
it okay people giving it a try bring you close to becoming it friend
Ok so when you use use 4% of 460 to find your sales tax you’re going to end up with 18.4 and that is goin got be your answer.
YEAH I WAS RIGHT 4%
Ryan thank you, life saver <33333
i think it's just division
If you use 0.4 you end up with 0.184 instead of the goal 18.4.
Okay I was partially right
@Allison seems like she was in a state of panic after giving the answer not certain whether her given answer was correct. All this while attempting to impersonate mods not named Hero.
Close this question now that it’s been answered.
