Phil bought a new calculator. it cost 12.40. the tax rate is 7.25%. calculate the tax and the total cost for the calcuator

Tax:

$0.899 (or about 90 cents)

Total:

$13.299 ( or about $13.30)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find tax rate you convert the percent to a decimal, which gives you .0725. Then you multiply that by the the original amount of the product, which gives you a tax of about 90 cents.

To find the total amount you add the tax rate to the original amount to get about $13.90.

I think that the tax is 1.71

Step-by-step explanation:

12.40/7.25=1.71

1.71+12.40=14.11

answer: it is d

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
