The second is right. The other two are wrong.
1. b
3. d
is that correct?
One of your new answers is right and one is wrong.
Please reread and rework both problems. Do not post these questions again.
To find the total amount you will pay, you need to calculate the subtotal by adding up the prices of the two whole chickens. In this case, the subtotal would be $12.99 + $12.99 = $25.98.
Then, to find the tax amount, you would multiply the subtotal by the sales tax rate, which is 6%.
$25.98 * 0.06 = $1.56
Finally, to find the total amount you will pay, you would add the subtotal and the tax amount together.
$25.98 + $1.56 = $27.54
Therefore, the correct answer is $27.54.
