Joe wants to buy the new Air Jordans for $170. He has saved up $180 by plowing driveways. He knows that he will have to pay 7.5% tax. Will Joe have enough money to buy the sneakers?
the sneaker with tax would be a total of 182.75. Take 170 and multiply it by .075 because of the 7.5% tax. That’s $12.75 of tax money that is added to the $170 for the shoes. NO HE WILL NOT HAVE ENOUGH.
