Your question is vague, but we can assume you're talking about adding sales tax to an item that is sold at retail. If the sales tax is 5 percent, multiply the item's tag price by 1.05, which gives you the total price. For example, if a sweater is 20 bucks, multiply that by 1.05, which gives you 21 dollars. Some people calculate the tax and then add it to the price. Five percent of 20 bucks is one dollar, so 20 plus one is 21.

If the tax is 10 percent and the price of the item is $1.00 then you simply calculate 10% of 1.0. = 10 cents and add it to the original price.You would charge the person $1.10 (including tax).The simple way to calculate the final price mathematically is to express the percent as a decimal and add 1 to it. Then multiply the price by this number.I.e If the tax is 5.6% you would express this a 0.056 + 1 = 1.056 and multiple the pre tax price by this number.

Do you get taxed for change?
No, so if you try to buy something, the item will always have tax. For example: I want an item that cost $5.76. And I give the clerk $16.96. So I told you that an item will always have tax right, so lets say the tax was $0.57. So we add the price of the item with the tax and we get $6.33. Now lets subtract $16.96 minus $6.33 and we get $10.63. So $10.63 is our change.
