Multiplying a number by 4/5 and then dividing by 2/5 is the same as multiplying by 2
Amount of purchase that Steve made = $40
Percentage of tax that Steve needs to pay = 10%
Then
Amount of tax that Steve needs to pay for the purchase = (10/100) * 40
= 1 * 4 dollars
= 4 dollars
Then
The total amount including tax
that Steve needs to pay for the purchase = (40 + 4) dollars
= 44 dollars
So the dollar amount of tax that Steve had to pay is $4 and
the total amount that Steve had to pay was $44.

Answer:
Marie ran at a faster rate. It takes 27 minutes for Lisa to run 15 laps while it takes Marie 26.25 minutes to run 15 laps.
Step-by-step explanation:
18 ÷ 10 = 1.8 (Lisa's rate)
14 ÷ 8 = 1.75 (Marie's rate)
1.8 x 15 = 27 minutes (How long it takes for Lisa to run 15 laps)
1.75 x 15 = 26.25 (How long it takes for Marie to run 15 laps)
.15% translates to
.0015, and "of" means to multiply. so .0015 multiplied with 43 is
.0645
