the advertised cost of admission to a water park in a nearby city is $25 dollars per student a student paid $30 for admission and received $3.75 in change what is the sales tax rate in that City

Respuesta :

$30-3.75= $26.25 is the total cost
26.25- $25 = $1.25, this is how much was charged for tax
1.25/25 = .05 or 5%
The city charges a 5% sales tax
