You purchased a shirt for $850. There is a 6% sales tax. What will be your total cost?

To calculate the total cost of the shirt, we first need to determine the amount of sales tax applied to the purchase.

The sales tax is calculated as follows:

  • Sales Tax = Price of Shirt × Sales Tax Rate
  • Sales Tax = $850 × 0.06 = $51

Next, we add the sales tax to the original price of the shirt to get the total cost:

  • Total Cost = Price of Shirt + Sales Tax
  • Total Cost = $850 + $51 = $901

So, the total cost of the shirt including tax will be $901.
