you are purchasing four items and want to calculate the tax. The items cost $2.50, $8.75, $3.00, and $10.25. The tax rate is 6%. How much is the tax?

PLEEEEEEEEEEEZE HELP ME !!! I AM SUPER DESPERATE!! i will mark brainliest

Respuesta :

The tax itself is $1.47

You can calculate that by adding up all four items. You should get $24.50. Then, you multiply 24.50 by 6%. When multiplying 24.50 and 6%, make sure you multiply (24.50)(0.06) and not (24.50)(0.6).

The total cost of the items after tax is $23.03 just in case you needed that. Just subtract

24.50 - 1.47
