If the state sales tax rate is 8%, how much money will you need to purchase a pair of jeans costing $29.99 and a shirt costing $16.99?

A. $3.75
B. $3.76
C. $50.73
D. $50.74

Respuesta :

29.99 + 16.99 = 46.98

46.98 + 0.08(46.98) = 46.98 + 3.76 = 50.74 <==
29.99+16.99=46.98. 46.98x8%=3.75. 46.98+3.75=50.73(C)
