what is the formula for adding the percentage of state tax to the dollar amount?

It depends on what the percentage of the tax is.  Here is a formula:\n\n$45.00 cost of product\n7.75% tax rate\n\nOn you calculator:\n\n$45.00 X 7.75 X % = 3.4875 + = $48.4875 or $48.49

The state sales tax is 7.25% but certain districs have an additional tax of .125% to .5% or none at all so it also depends on your district, Hope that helps

1) move each decimal point two times to the left (ex: 45%=0.45)\n2) multiple sales tax and dollar amount and thats your answer\n3) same as above\n4) same as above (ex: something cost $50 sale 20%off... $50 times 0.20 = you save $10)\n5) same as above\n6)same as above then subtract amount from original (ex: something cost $50 sale 20%off... $50 times 0.20 = you save $10 then you take orginal amount -save =answer $50-$10=$40)\n7) take rule number 6 then rule numer 2 add them together and thats your answer...\n\nnow take those rules and do your own homework! good luck!

15% is not a whole number. It is .15 which is pretty close to 1/6. If you are paying tax you can bet that you will pay $1.43 for the tax which is a total of $10.93--another reason why math is so important--so you don't get overcharged.

to convert from decimal to percentage, just multiply the decimal by 100, but remember to put the "%" sign so people know it is per 100

times 2000 by %6.125 then divide by 2, thats added to the $2000, then multiply the new cash value by %6.125 and divide by 2, then repeat the process that i have gone through twice 2 more times\n\n%6.125 equals 0.06125

It is a percentage, of the sales price..For instance, if a car cost is $100.00, and the state sales tax, is 5%, then you would pay $5.00 in state sales tax..Every state sales tax, might not be the same..

hmm..well this might be an easy fix if you have a calculator\n\nsimply multiply the total by 0.1.  the answer will be 10 percent of the total.\n\nhope this helps\n\nexample: 132.00  x 0.1 = 13.20    which is 10%

Rounded to the nearest cent:\nprice w/o tax = $80.74\ntax (7.75%) = $6.26\n\nEquation used in calculation: $87/1.0775=$80.74\n\nI hope that I didn't just answer someone's homework problem. :-)

Let's say that all of the add-ons came to 15%. Add the percentages together and multiply the purchase price by 1.15. \n\nIf it were 13% you would add the purchase price by 1.13\n\nHope that helps

Hi,\nThe easiest way that I calculate 20% from any amount is to take any given amount and divide by 5.  Example:  $25.00 divided by 5 equals $5.00.  This formula ALWAYS works.  good luck.  I know you can do this!

Here's a few hints for you:\n\nTo make it easy: write a single Procedure that can be called multiple times from anywhere in the form. 1) to Calculate the total, and 2) to calculate the total with tax. Then you can call that from multiple places.\n\nYou know the prices for the items are fixed, so you have those numbers already. You just need to make sure the qty fields are valid. And you already learned how to validate a field, right?\n\nEach field has a "depart" event, which is triggered when the cursor leaves that field. Each of the QTY field's "depart" should trigger the recalculation. \n\nYou can't multiply a string.

Simply multiply by 100.\n\nThe reason for this is simple.  We interpret percent as 1/100 so if we want to convert a fraction a/b to percent we have the following:\n\nc % = a/b ==> c * 1/100 = a/b ==> c = 100 * (a/b)\n\nYou may also want to convert a/b to decimal.  Although this is not essential.

3 shirts x $18.99 each = $56.97\n$75 - $56.97 = $18.03 left over...\n\nIf we get more complicated, and include tax, it depends on where you live...  I'm going to use the example living in ny, since thats where i live...  I just looked it up its a 8.625% rate\n\nsoo..\n\nTake the $56.97 total x 8.625% = $4.9136625 sales tax\n$4.9136625 + the $56.97 = $61.8836625, which rounded off to nearest penny = $61.88 being the total price\n\nTake the original $75 - $61.88 = $13.12 left over...

Your item cost x dollars. \n\nTo show the cost plus the tax, you'd say:\nx + .12x = $5000\n\n(it costs "x" amount, and you have to add 12% to it, or .12)\n\nSimplify that to:\n\n1.12x = $5000\n\nSolve for x, so now you get:\n\nx = 5000/1.12\n\nx = $4464.29

If you buy several items, all of which are subject to a sales tax, then you can calculate the total tax by summing the tax on each item. However, for the total tax to be accurate to the penny, you must do all the calculations to an accuracy of tenths of a penny (in other words, to three significant digits), then round the sum to the nearest penny (two significant digits). If you calculated only to the penny, then each measurement might be off by as much as half a penny ($0.005) and the total possible error would be this amount multiplied by the number of items bought. If you bought three items, then the error could be as large as 1.5 cents; if you bought 10 items then your total tax could be off by as much as five cents.
