Henry was buying meals for his family. he bought 3 meals that included a chicken, corn, and a drink and spent a total of $20.25. he paid 6% sales tax. how much did each meal cost before tax?

The price of each meal cost before tax is $ 6.367

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total price of three meals = $ 20.25

The sales tax included in the total price = 6 %

So, Let the cost of meal before sales tax = x

Or, x + 6 % of x = $ 20.25

or, x + 0.06 x = $ 20.25

Or, 1.06 x = $ 20.25

∴  x =

I.e x = $ 19.10

Or, price of three meals before tax = $ 19.10

so, The price of each meal = = $ 6.367

Hence The price of each meal cost before tax is $ 6.367   answer

chemists are often responsible for designing a chemical reaction and analyzing the products obtained from it. one significant part of designing a chemical reaction is determining the amount of each reactant that is needed and the amount of each product that will be produced. in order to do so, chemists use stoichiometry, the quantitative relationships between reactants and products.
