Question

Jonah's lunch cost $27.50, he paid $1.65 sales tax. What is the percent of sales tax?

Answer 1

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get sales tax, you multiply the percentage of sell tax to the total price. In this case, we were looking for the percent of sell tax so we needed to divide the total amount into the amount he payed in sells tax. You will get the decimal value so you will have to multiply it by 100 to get the percent.
