just take the amount of the item and add 6% i.e. 6 cents for every dollar

Answer 7

149.70 * 0.6% which comes up to 8.92 then you add the price with the the sales tax  149.70 + 8.92=158.62

Either multiply 149.70 time 1.06 to get the total cost or

Multiply 149.70 times 0.06 to get the tax and add to price.  You also have to have some idea of rounding to get it to whole pennies

Answer 9

$149.70  *  0.06 = $8.98 Sales tax on your purchase.

149.70 + 8.98 = $158.68

Answer 10

6% of 149.70 is .06 times 149.70 or $8.98.  You add that to the base price of the item, and the total you'll pay is $158.68.

Answer 11

It is easiest to round up to $150....multiple it by .06 and add that to it to figure out what you owe.

Answer 12

okay, you turn the percentage into a decimal (6%=.06).

Add .06 and 1.0 (.06=1=1.06)

Now multiply $149.70 by 1.06 ($149.70x1.06=$158.682)

So the complete price of the item would be $158.68
