A pair of scissors costs $11.99 before tax. How much will you have to pay the cashier after the taxes. You need to pay 13% HST (The Harmonized Sales Tax).

Answer :

Answer: $13.5487

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of scissors = $11.99

Harmonized sales tax = 13%

The amount that'll be paid to the cashier after the taxes will be the addition of the cost of the scissors plus the taxes and this will be:

= $11.99 + (13% × $11.99)

= $11.99 + $1.5587

= $13.5487

The amount to be paid is $13.5487
