Question

how do u calculate tax?

Answer 1

As an example, I'm going to use Pennsylvania's state tax of 6%.

For every one (1) dollar, an additional six (6) cents are added for tax.

Here's an equation and examples:

(amount of money) x (percent in decimal form + 1) = total

$1 x (0.06 + 1) = $1.06

$2 x (0.06 + 1) = $2.12

$50 x (0.06 + 1) = $53.00

$75 x (0.06 + 1) = $79.50

$100 x (0.06 + 1) = $106.00

Hope I could help!
