Once sales tax is included, a $100 hockey stick ends up costing $107. What is the sales tax percentage?
The sales tax amount is $7 ($107 - $100).
To find the sales tax percentage, divide the sales tax amount by the original price of the hockey stick:
$7 / $100 = 0.07
To convert this to a percentage, multiply by 100:
0.07 x 100 = 7%
Therefore, the sales tax percentage is 7%.
