Kara bought two birthday gifts for her twin nephews. Each gift cost $12.50. Sales tax was 8.5%. What was the total cost for the gifts, including tax?

$27.12

Step-by-step:

So, we first need to learn how much money the tax is. We can find it like this

8.5 8.5x12.50

x 12.50 =

100 100

106.25

= = 1.0625 ~~ $1.06

100

The tax is $1.06

So now, the only thing left is to add

12.50 + 1.06 = $13.56

13.56x2 = $27.12 (for both gifts)

In total, both gifts cost $27.12 with tax.

In total, both gifts cost

definitely a. the others have almost all data points on one side of the line.
