\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "cost price of the shoes = $41.99\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " sales tax r = 3% of $41.99\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = (3/100)*41.99
\n" ); document.write( " = $ 1.26\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " The total cost price c = p+rp
\n" ); document.write( " c = $41.99+$1.26\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " c = $43.25\r
