Ralph jordan recently bought a new lawnmower for $228.00. if he had to pay 6% sales tax on the lawnmower, what was the total cost of the lawnmower?

First, we have to calcutate the tax:

6%*228.00=13.2

(

so that's the tax he has to pay.

we add this to the cost of the landmover:
228+13.68=241.68
and that's the total cost!
