In math, you tax by the following steps:
1) Read the problem, let's say 29% of $89
2) Write percent as a decimal, 29% = .29
3) Multiply 89x.29=25.81
4) That is 29% of $89
BUT,
if sales tax is 9%,
then you bought a shirt that cost $29.89.
You'd do the following:
1) Write 9% as a decimal (move it over 2 times) .09
2) 29.90x.09= $2.61
That is SALES TAX
So, you add it on to the total
29.90+2.61=$32.51
Simple as that!
