Responses
A $3.33$3.33
B $3.45$3.45
C $3.51$3.51
D $3.60
First, we need to calculate the amount of tax for the slice of apple pie.
8% of $3.25 is (0.08 * 3.25) = $0.26
Add the tax to the price of the slice:
$3.25 + $0.26 = $3.51
Therefore, a customer would pay $3.51 for the slice of apple pie.
The answer is C) $3.51.
