1,055.80 - 127.00 = 928.8
1.08 is dollar with 8% sales tax rate
928.8/1.08 = 860
So, 860 items were sold that day.
I hope this helps! :)
Every item in the Just a Dollar store is priced at $1.00. When Mary Jo opens the store, there is $127.00 in the cash register. When she counts the money in the cash register at the end of the day, the total is $1,055.80. If the sales tax rate is 8%, how many items were sold that day?
