Mai bought a television which costs 325 dollars then the tax is said to be 8%.Now, with the given choices, let's find which one is the correct proportion to be able to get the correct answer.=> 325 is our 100% since this is the total price of the television=> 8% is our sales tax.Thus the proportion must be: = 8/100 = x/325Now, let's solve=> 8 / 100 = x / 325=> 8 /100 = 0.08x = 325 * 0.08=> x = 26Thus the 8% tax = 26 dollars
