Louisa purchased a new snake for $199.00. Sales tax is 7.25%. What is her total bill? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the total bill, we need to calculate the sales tax on the purchase.

First, we calculate the amount of sales tax by multiplying the purchase price by the sales tax rate:

199.00 * 0.0725 = 14.4275

Then, we add the sales tax amount to the purchase price to find the total bill:

199.00 + 14.43 = 213.43

Therefore, Louisa's total bill is $213.43.
