What is 7% tax on an item that costs $2.99?

For this case we can make the following rule of three: 2.99 ----------> 100% x --------------> 7% From here, we clear the value of x. We have then: x = ( 7/100 ) ∗ ( 2.99 ) Rewriting the expression we have: [tex]x = (0.07) * (2.99)
x = 0.2093 ** Answer:** ** The sales taxes are:** ** x = 0.2093"> [ / t e x ] < s p an > ∗ ∗ A n s w er : ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ T h es a l es t a x es a re : ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ x = 0.2093 **
