Question

At a restaurant there is 7% sales tax. If the bill was $8.64, how much would be owed in total?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total money be x

then,

7% of x = $8.64

=>

$\frac{7}{100} \times x = 8.64$

$= > \: \: x = 8.64 \div \frac{7}{100}$

$= > \: \: x = 8.64 \times \frac{100}{7}$

$= > \: \: x = 123.43 \: dollars(aprox)$

hope it helps.........
