James buys a video game for his xbox for 49.99 a controller for 34.95 and a walk through manual for 19.99 the sales tax in his area is 8.25% what will be the total cost of his purchase

Cost of the video game bought by James = 49.99

Cost of the controller bought by James = 34.95

Cost of the walk through manual bought by James = 19.99

Percentage of sales tax in the area of James = 8.25%

Total amount spent by James for buying the goods = 49.99 + 34.95 + 19.99

= 104.93

Amount of sales tax = (8.25/100) * 104.93

= 865.67/100

= 8.66

So the total amount paid by James including tax = 104.93 + 8.66

= 113.59

So the total cost of the purchase made by James is 113.59. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
