Amount x Tax Rate % = (finds out the amount of tax)

or

Amount x .__ (tax rate, if it is 7 you would put .07) = (amount of tax)

To determine the sales tax rate you would have to contact the locality you live in because the rate can vary from town to town.

How do you calculate sales tax using gross sales?

If I understand your question correctly you know what the Gross Receipts are and need to calculate the sales tax that is included. If that is the case this is how to do it. Gross Receipts - Gross Receipts divided by (1+ Tax Rate) if your tax rate is 5% and your gross receipts including tax are $1,050.00, divide $1,050.00 by 1.05. The result is your net receipts without tax. $1000.00 . Then $1050.00 -$1000.00 = $50.00 the sales tax
