Justin and his friend Dane went to the movies if they eat popcorn for a $4.25 and a soda for $2.25 what was their total bill after adding 5% sales tax
Help Me

Respuesta :

Given : Cost of Popcorn = $4.25

Given : Cost of Soda = $2.25

Total Cost of Popcorn and Soda = $4.25 + $2.25 = $6.50

Given : Sales tax on Total Bill = 5%

We need to find 5% of $6.50, in order to have the amount of Sales tax

⇒ 5% of $6.50 =  [tex]\frac{5}{100} \times 6.50 = 0.05 \times 6.50 = 0.325[/tex]

⇒ Total Bill = Cost of both Popcorn and Soda + Sales tax on the both

⇒ Total Bill = $6.50 + $0.325 = $6.825
