ok, so oriiginal+tax
if tax is in %, remember that x%=x/100
example, first one
1. tax is 5%, so we find 5% of 1.95 which is 0.05 times 1.95 which is .0975 or about 10 cents so total is 1.95
but wait, we found a shortcut
1(1.95)+0.05(1.95)=original+tax
we can undistribute the 1.95
1.95(1+0.05)=original+tax
so therfor we conclude that
oriignalprice(1+taxindecimal)=sale price
neato



1. sale price=1.95(1.05)=$2.0475 or about $2.05
2. sale price=58.50(1.01)=$61.425 or about $61.43
3. sale price=49.45(1.02)=$50.439 or about $50.44
4. sale price=58.50(1.01)=$61.425 or about $61.43
5. sale price=2500.00(1.01)=$2525.005.
6. sale price=50.00(1.02)=$51.00
7. sale price=149.50(1.02)=$152.49
8. sale price=2800.00(1.01)=$2828.00
9. sale price=2000.00(1.06)=$2120.00
10. sale price=9.50(1.06)=$10.07
11. sale price=4.95(1.05)=$5.1975 or about $5.20
12. sale price=50.00(1.06)=$53.00
13. sale price=299.95(1.06)=$317.947 or about $317.95
So anyways to find the tax amount just divide the original price by 100 times the tax percentage then add the amount you get to the original selling price.
So that would mean
1. 2.05
2. 59.09
3. 50.44
4. 59.09
5. 2525.00
6. 51.00
7. 152.49
8. 2528.00
9. 2120.00
10. 10.07
11. 5.20
12. 53.00
13. 317.95
Hope I helped took me a good 15 min so plz rate brainliest
