Q:

Customer: “I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost of $65.00 per product. What will be my total?” Employee: “Your state has a 3.5% sales tax. Your total is __________.”

Accepted Solution

A:
1 product = $65.00
20 products = 65 x 20 = $1300

Sales Tax = 3.5% of $1300 = 0.035 x $1300 = $45.50

Total = $1300 + $45.50 = $1345.50
