The total is: $ 1345.5
It is given that:
I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost 65.00 per product.
This means that the cost of 20 products will be:
[tex]20\times 65=\$\ 1300[/tex]
Also, there is a sales tax of 3.5%
This means that a person has to pay a extra 3.5% on the total cost of the items he purchased.
i.e. he need to pay 3/5% on $ 1300
This means that the amount of tax he need to pay is: 3.5% of 1300
= 3.5%×1300
= 0.035×1300
= $ 45.5.
Hence, the total cost is: $ 1300+$ 45.5
This means that the total cost is: $ 1345.5
