Question

what is another way to find the total cost. of shoes for $57 with a sales tax of 2%?

Answer 1

Hey there!

Make the 2% to a decimal which is .02 and multiply it by 57 to find the sales tax

.02*57= 11.4
So 11.4 is the sales tax
So add 11.4 to 57 and you get

$68.40 is the total cost

Hope this helps!
