Answer:

$5.61

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

At a dinner, the meal cost $22 and a sales tax of $1.87 was added to the bill.

so

using a proportion

Find out how much would the sales tax be on a $66 meal

Let

x ----> the amount of sales tax on a $66 meal

[tex]\frac{22}{1.87}=\frac{66}{x}\\\\x=1.87(66)/22\\\\x=1.87(3)\\\\x=\$5.61[/tex]
