what would the total bill be of a painting that costs $44.80 with a tax rate of 6%
Answer: The total bill will be of $47.488.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the cost of a painting is $44.80 and there is a tax rate of 6%.
We are to find the total amount that the bill will have.
Since there is a tax rate of 6%, so 6% of the total cost will be added to the bill.
Therefore, the total amount of bill is given by
\(B\\\\=\textup{cost of the painting}+6\%\times \textup{cost of the painting}\\\\=44.80+6\%\times 44.80\\\\=44.80+\dfrac{6}{100}\times 44.80\\\\=44.80+2.688\\\\=47.488.\)
Thus, the total amount of the bill is $47.488.
