New skill: Calculating sales tax
Example of a sales tax calculation
Here's a look at the sales tax formula in action with an item that costs $50 and a sales tax rate of 5%:
$50 x .05 = $2.50 for a total of $52.50.
The 5% got turned into the decimal number of .05 and was multiplied against $50, resulting in a sales tax amount of $2.50.
Let's look at how it works with a sales tax of 9.25%.
$50 x .0925 = 4.63 for a total of $54.63.
Calculate the sales tax for the following problems. Don't forget to add the tax to the original amount to get the new cost.
1. $55 tax rate of 8%
2. $98 tax rate of 12%
3. $125 tax rate of 9.25%
4. $1090 sales tax rate of 15.5%
5. 2400 sales tax rate of 15%
