Sales tax on an item is directly proportional to the cost of the item purchased if the tax on a $600 item is $36 what is the sales tax on a $950 item?

Respuesta :

In this, you need to calculate the % of tax.
It would be: 36/600 * 100 = 6%

So, on $950 item it will be: 950*6/100 = $57

So, your final answer is $57
