what is 10.25 dollars with a 6% tax rate
To calculate the total amount with tax added, you need to multiply the dollar amount by the tax rate (in decimal form) and then add that result to the dollar amount.
First, convert the tax rate from a percentage to decimal form:
6% = 6/100 = 0.06
Next, calculate the tax amount by multiplying the dollar amount by the tax rate:
Tax amount = $10.25 x 0.06 = $0.615
Finally, add the tax amount to the dollar amount to get the total amount with tax:
Total amount = $10.25 + $0.615 = $10.865
Therefore, $10.25 with a 6% tax rate equals $10.865.
