Answer :

Answer:

= 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

sold price           =   22.05

marked price     =    21.00

sales tax             =    1.05

%sales tax =  sales tax x 100

                       marked price

%sales tax  =  1.05 x 100   = 105   = 5%

                           21.00           21          

remember the sales tax was added to the marked price to form the new price.

the percentage of the sales tax will therefore be determined on the marked price.
