Answer:
Caleb bought groceries and paid $1.6 in Sale Tax
Sale tax rate is 2.5%
Price of Groceries before tax = $64
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say price of groceries caleb bought = $ G
Sale Tax rate = 2.5 %
Sale Tax = (2.5/100) G = G/40 $
Sale tax Caleb Paid = $ 1.6
G/40 = 1.6
=> G = 1.6 * 40
=> G = $ 64
