How would you figure this out?!?

DVD Player $155 Digital Camera $364
VCR $118 101-disc CD Changer $108
13 inch television $60 50 inch television $1,056
Laptop Computer $2,006 Portable CD Player $135
2-Way Radio $72 Cordless Phone $29
Answering Machine $107 Wireless Phone $70

------------------------------...

Using the price list, calculate each question to the nearest cent. 1. 6% sales tax on one 13 inch television
What is the sales tax?


2. 6.4% sales tax on one Answering Machine
What is the sales tax?

1. $3.40
2. $6.44

6% sales tax means for every $100 you will add $6 of tax which gives a total of $106. So, for the 13 inch TV its (60 x100)/106 = $56.60 the price of the TV without the tax which gives $3.40 of tax. Same steps for the second question.

the answering machine is 6.85 sales tax. Wow, that would be a lot of tax
