For example, 99.99] If necessary, round the amount of tax to the nearest 100th.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the prices to get the subtotal:

Sweet Tea:

2.49 * 2 = 4.98

4.98 + 15.99 + 4.99 = $25.96

The subtotal is $25.96

The sale's tax in Miami is 7% (the base 6% for FL, and the extra 1% for Miami).

$25.96 * 0.07 = 1.817 ≈ 1.82

The tax should be 1.82.

Hope this helps.
