Apack of cinnamon-scented pencils sells for $5.00. what is the sales tax rate if the total cost of the pencils is $5.30? the sales tax rate is %.

sales tax 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

pencils' price= $ 5.00

pencils' price + sales tax = $5.30

$5.00 + sales tax = $5.30

sales tax = $5.00- $5.30

sales tax= $0.30

sales tax = % in decimals times pencils' price

$0.30 = p x $5.00

p= $0.30/ $5.00

p= 0.06

in percent  is 6%
