A surfboard costs $240 and sales tax is 5%. What is the cost for the surfboard with sales tax?

(Explain how you got the answer)

$252

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly we have to find how much tax cost.

to find tax turn the percentage into a decimal and multiply by the price of the item.

5% = 0.05

0.05 x $240 = $12

then once you have the tax add it to the price.

$240 + $12 = $252

and thats your answer!
