Question 85027: A new fax machine was recently purchased for an office in Hopedale for $464.40 including tax. If the tax rate in Hopedale is 8%, find the prince of the fax machine before taxes. Answer by RCupstid(2) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 8% of 464.40 = .08 * 464.40 = 37.15 (sales tax)
464.40 (total cost) - 37.15 (sales tax) = 427.25 (price before taxes)
