Deidre bought a car in California. The price of the car was $32,000. California has an 8% sales tax. How much did Deidre pay for the car including sales tax?

Respuesta :

Given:

Price of car = $32,000

Sales tax = 8%

To find:

The price of car including sales tax.

Solution:

We have,

Price of car = $32,000

Salas tax = 8%

Amount of sales tax = 8% of price of car

[tex]\text{ Sales Tax}=\dfrac{8}{100}\times 32000[/tex]

[tex]\text{Sales Tax}=2560[/tex]

Now,

Total price of car including tax = Price of car + Sales tax

[tex]\text{Total price of car including tax}=32000+2560[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total price of car including tax}=34560[/tex]

Therefore, the price of car including tax is $34560.
