in this problem, we were told that a person bought a coat that cost $98.95 and gloves that cost $7.95 and that the sales tax is 6%. You want to know the total for this purchase will think about. If you were at the store and you went to the register, they would first bring off the total cost for everything that you bought. So what we need to do first is add the price of the coat, which is $98.95 plus the cost of the gulf clubs, which is $7.95 and that equals $106.90. Next, what the Register would do is figure out how much tax would be made on this order. One other words we need to figure out 6% of $106.90 is so to do that, we take the total, which is $106.90 and we need to multiply our sales tax as a dust bowl. Well, remember, 6% t convert this to a decimal we move the decimal 60.2 places to the left. So this will be 0.6 So we're gonna multiply $106.90 by 900.6 And when we multiply this, we get 6.414 Now, remember, because we're talking about money we need to round and have two places after the decimal. So we're going to look at the third place? Well, because four is less than five, we're going to leave this as just $6.41 sets. So now think about what happens at the register. They're going to take the total amount for all of your purchases, which we found to be 100 and $6.90. And then they're gonna add on the tax, which we found to be $6.41. So now when we add $106.90 plus $6.41 we find that we get ah $113.31 and that will be the total for this perchance persons purchase
