Answer:

This online sales tax calculator solves multiple problems around the tax imposed on the sale of goods and services.

Answer:

$1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

If 8% is charged for each $. Tax charged for $1 = 8/100 which is equal to 0.08.

 Tax         Amount payed

$0.08 -----------> $1

    $y    ------------> $20

This is directly proportional. Therfore cross multiply the values.

y × 1 = 20 × 0.08

y × 1 = 1.6

y = 1.6/1

y = 1.6

Therefore $1.6 is the amount of tax charged for $20
