Step-by-step explanation:
Total= Car Cost + (Car Cost * Tax %)
Total= $16,800 + ($16,800 * 6.25%)
convert % to decimal form; divide % by 100
Total= $16,800 + ($16,800 * 0.0625)
multiply inside parentheses
Total= $16,800 + $1,050
Total= $17,850
ANSWER: The total cost for the used car with tax is $17,850.
