Dividing would only add more to the equation, you're going to need to multiply

0.477

why did you close it madison?

vietress · Answer

Ok, so $7.95 is the price of the cooler PLUS tax. The price of the cooler is 100% of it's price (as stated in the question) PLUS the 6% sales tax. That means:
106% of cost of cooler = $7.95
Does that make sense?
Your answer would be 106.
Hope this helped!
