To find the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included, we need to add the sales tax to the listed price.
Sales tax = 6.5% of $661.95 = 0.065 * 661.95 = $42.97
Total cost = Listed price + Sales tax = $661.95 + $42.97 = $704.92
Rounded to the nearest cent, the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included is $704.92.
A bicycle has a listed price of $661.95 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 6.5%, find the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included.
