Question

A shopper thought shoes marked $40 the sales tax is 8% how much the shopper pay in all

Answer 1

so, if I understand correctly the prize before sales tax is 40 dollars and the sales tax is 8%. how much is this?

$\frac{8}{100} *40= \frac{8}{10} *4=\frac{4}{5} *4= \frac{16}{5} =3.2$

so the final prize is 40+3.2=43.2
