A $30 red clay pot costs $32.10 after sales tax is figured in. What is the sales tax percentage?

32.10 / 30 =1.07 - 1 x 100 =7% Sales tax.

Can be figured thusly :

 

 ( [ 32.10/30.00  -  1]  * 100 ) %  =

 

(  [1.07  -   1[ * 100 ) %  =

 

( .07  * 100 )  %  =

 

7%  sales  tax

 

 

 

cool cool cool
