To find the sales tax amount, multiply the listed price by the sales tax rate:
$707.99 * 0.075 = $53.10 (rounded to the nearest cent)
The total cost of the laptop with the sales tax included is the listed price plus the sales tax:
$707.99 + $53.10 = $761.09 (rounded to the nearest cent)
A laptop has a listed price of $707.99 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 7.5%, find the total cost of the laptop with the sales tax included.
