The price of a pair of shoes is 63.20 the sales tax is 4.5 percent. How much sales tax would you pay if you brought these shoes
To find the tax amount you will pay, multiply the price of the shoes by the sales tax percentage.
63.20*.045=$2.84
Answer:
The sales tax would be 2.8368.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The price of a pair of shoes = 63.04,
Also, the sales tax = 4.5 %,
Thus, the sales tax in buying the shoes = 4.5 % of the price of shoes
= 4.5% of 63.04
\(=\frac{4.5\times 63.04}{100}\)
\(=\frac{283.68}{100}\)
\(=2.8368\)
