Steve paid 10% tax on a purchase of $40. select the dollar amount of the tax and the total dollar amount steve paid.

Amount of purchase that Steve made = $40
Percentage of tax that Steve needs to pay = 10%
Then
Amount of tax that Steve needs to pay for the purchase = (10/100) * 40
                                                                                          = 1 * 4 dollars
                                                                                          = 4 dollars
Then
The total amount including tax
that Steve needs to pay for the purchase = (40 + 4) dollars
                                                                   = 44 dollars
So the dollar amount of tax that Steve had to pay is $4 and the total amount that Steve had to pay was $44.
