Luis purchases a refrigerator for $500 in Iowa, where the sales tax rate is 6.5%. What is the amount of sales tax?

Respuesta :

To find sales tax, we use the given rate (6.5%) and convert it to a decimal so .065. We multiply the tax rate by the price of the product, $500. 
.065 * 500 = 32.5
That is your answer: $32.50.
