Elda purchased two pairs of shoes in georgia, where the sales tax rate is 4 percent, at $50.00 each. she also bought a dress at $30.00 and a pair of trousers at $20.00. what is the total purchase price, including the sales tax?

$104

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the total price of everything:

50 + 20 + 30 = 100

Now, as 100 = 100% of the price, imagine the 4% tax as an addition to this:

100 + 4 = 104

So you need to find what 104% of 100 is, this can be done using the percentage formula:

amount x

Plug the values into this

100 x

100 x 1.04 = $104

So the total price including the sales tax would be $104!

Hope this helps!
