1. Mr. Paul pays the parking bill before tax at a cost of $33.20. The parking tax rate is 2%. Mr. Paul decides to leave a 5% tip for the parking guard based on the pre-tax amount. How much will the total bill be? 2. Mr. Smith paid $36.36 for a carpet. This amount includes a tax of 10%. What was the cost of the carpet before tax?

for the first question the total bill is  $35.524

for the 2nd question the answer is  $36.36 = 110%.

$36.36 ÷ 1.1 = $33.054

(the five and the four are recurring)

(I divided by 1.1 because 1.1 is the same as 110%)

hope this helped :)

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
