Mary bought four shirts for $ 22.00 each, a pants suit for $212.00 and dress shoes for $85.00 Her sales tax is 6 % what is the total of her bill ?
$22 x 4 = $88.00
$88.00
$212.00
+ $ 85.00
-------------------------------------
$ 385
x 0.6 %
--------
$23.10
+$385.00
-----------------
$408.10 408.10
4*22=88+212=300+85=385
so... 385*0.6=23.10
Total=408.10
You are correct.
To calculate the total bill, you first need to find the subtotal before applying the sales tax. To do this, you multiply the cost of each item by the quantity:
4 shirts x $22.00 = $88.00 (subtotal for shirts)
1 pants suit x $212.00 = $212.00 (subtotal for pants suit)
1 pair of dress shoes x $85.00 = $85.00 (subtotal for dress shoes)
Next, you find the sum of the subtotals:
$88.00 + $212.00 + $85.00 = $385.00 (subtotal before tax)
To calculate the sales tax, you need to multiply the subtotal before tax by the sales tax rate (6%):
$385.00 x 0.06 = $23.10 (sales tax amount)
Finally, to find the total bill, you add the subtotal before tax and the sales tax amount:
$385.00 + $23.10 = $408.10
Therefore, the total bill is $408.10.
