Sharon paid$78 sales tax on a new camera. if the sales tax rate is 6.5%,what was the cost of the camera?

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

78 = 6.5%

This means that if you divide 78 by 6.5, you get the equivalent of 1% of the price:

78 ÷ 6.5 = 12

So 1% = 12

Now simply multiply this by 100 to get the full

12 x 100 = 1200

So the camera cost $1200!
