Answer:
We can convert 6.75% to a decimal by dividing by 100.
If x is the price of the house, then the sales tax is 0.0675x. The price of the house and the sales tax add up to $319,000.
x+0.0675x=319,000
Combe terms on the left.
1.0675x=319,000
Finally, divide both sides by 1.0675.
x=319,0001.0675=298,829.04
