Find the amount. $$ \begin{matrix}\mathrm{\scriptstyle{Product \ description}} & \mathrm{\scriptstyle{Unit \ price}} & \mathrm{\scriptstyle{Number}} & \mathrm{\scriptstyle{Subtotal}} & \mathrm{\scriptstyle{Tax (8\text{\\%})}} & \mathrm{\scriptstyle{Total}}\\\mathrm{\scriptstyle{Notebooks \ (2 \ pack)}} & \mathrm{$1.99} & \text{2} & \mathrm{$3.98}\\\end{matrix} $$

Solution

Verified
Step 1
1 of 2

Write the tax rate as decimal, ie 8%=0.088\%=0.08

Tax=Subtotal×TaxTax=$3.98×0.08=$0.32\begin{align*} \text{Tax}&=\text{Subtotal} \times\text{Tax}\\ \text{Tax}&=\$3.98\times0.08=\$0.32\\ \end{align*}

Now, add the subtotal and the tax to find the total price.

Total=$3.98+$0.32=$4.3\text{Total}=\$3.98+\$0.32=\$4.3

Total is $4.3\$4.3
