You payed $9.96. 

$6.50 +$ 2.90=$9.40
$9.40 x 0.06= $0.56
$9.40+$0.56=$9.96
The first thing we must do for this case is to calculate the total amount paid.
 We have then:
 [tex] 6.50 + 2.90 = 9.40 [/tex]
 We are now looking for an additional 6% of the amount.
 For this, we make the following rule of three:
 9.40 --------> 100%
 x ------------> 106% From here, we clear the value of x.
 We have then: [tex]x = (106/100) * (9.40) x = 9,964[/tex]
 Answer: you paid: [tex]x = 9,964 [/tex]
