Jackie buys a basket for $6, 2 pounds of apples for $3.50 per pound, and 2 pounds of oranges for $3.50 each per pound. The tax for the whole purchase is $1. Express the tax as a percentage.

Respuesta :

I think the tax of the whole purchase is 5 percent.
$6+$3.50(2lbs of apples)+ $3.50 (2lbs of oranges)=6+7+7=$20
If the tax is $1, the percentage of $1 out of $20 is 1/20=.05 or 5%
