Multiply the total taxable items times the tax rate expressed as a decimal. For example, if the sales tax rate is 6%, and the taxable items total $25, the sales tax is $1.50 (25 x .06).

How do you figure the sales tax on a total number?

To calculate sales tax on a total amount, first determine the sales tax rate, which is usually expressed as a percentage. Multiply the total amount by the sales tax rate (in decimal form). For example, if the total amount is $100 and the sales tax rate is 7%, you would calculate $100 x 0.07 = $7. Finally, add the sales tax amount to the original total to get the final amount.
