The correct answer is 6%.
To calculate the percentage of tax, we divide the tax amount ($0.27) by the cost of the chicken sandwich ($4.50) and then multiply by 100.
($0.27 / $4.50) * 100 = 0.06 * 100 = 6%.
A chicken sandwich costs $4.50. There is an additional tax of $0.27. What is the percentage of tax?(1 point)
