Jim is buying a new camping tent for $123. If the state sales tax rate is 8%, how much will Jim have to pay altogether for the camping tent, including tax?

Respuesta :

[tex]\bf \stackrel{\textit{a\% of b}}{\cfrac{a}{100}\cdot b}~\hspace{10em}\stackrel{\textit{8\% of 123}}{\cfrac{8}{100}\cdot 123}\implies 9.84 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{total price}}{123+9.84}~\hfill[/tex]

132.84. 123+8%= 132.84
