Nachelle goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $8.10. A sales tax of 4%
was added on. Nachelle tipped 17% on the amount after the sales tax was added. How
much was the sales tax? Round to the nearest cent.

Given the following question:

4% of $8.10

To find the question we use the formula for calculating percentages.

[tex]\frac{t\times i}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4\times8.1}{100}=4\times8.1=32.4\div100=0.324[/tex]
[tex]0.324[/tex]
Round the nearest cent:
[tex]0.324[/tex]
[tex]4<5[/tex]
[tex]0.32[/tex]

The sales tax was "$0.32 cents."

Hope this helps.
