• Linda bought a new sewing machine for
$599.95 (no tax) and then returned it for one
that was $451.77 (no tax). Figuring 6% sales
tax, what would be the total of the refund?
• Have your homework out to be checked off for
a completion grade.
Bell Ringer Answer
• $599.95 * 6% = $36.00 in tax.
• $599.95 + $36.00 = $635.95
• $451.77 * 6% = $27.11
• $451.77 + $27.11 = $478.88
• $635.95 - $478.88 = $157.07
