Sonia wanted to purchase a raincoat that cost 12.00 if there would be an 8% sales tax for the purchase ,how much would the sales tax be (round your answer to the nearest cent )

$1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the sales tax, you have to perform the multiplication operation by multiplying $12 by 8%.

Let x be the sales tax.

x = $12 x 8%

x = 12 x 0.08

x = 0.96

To round off the answer to the nearest cent, you have to look for the last number in the cents' place. If the number is 5 or above, you have to add 1 to the number next to it. If it's below 5, you just have to copy the values.

In the case above, the last number in the cents' place is 6. This is above 5, so we have to add 1 to 9, which will make it 100 cents or $1.

So, the sales tax is $1.
