Taxes? Daily----NOT REFUND!?

Question

On daily purchases, an 8.25% is charged to every dollar spent. How do I calculate that with a total?

Answer 1

If you are buying $X of product before tax and you want to know the total cost you would multiply $X times 1.0825.  If you have made several purchases and spent $Z, including the 8.25% tax and you wish to know what the cost before tax was you divide $Z by 1.0825.

Answer 2

Multiply the purchase price by 1.0825
