Umm, tax depends on where you are. In Los Angeles, it’s 8.25%. Your location might be higher or lower. Every city determines their own sales tax rate.
Get the tax, for instance, 8.25%. The % sign means to move the digit to the left twice, so now you get 0.0825 . Multiply this number to the amount, and you’ll get your tax, for instance:
0.0825 * 127.50 = 10.51875
Round it, and it’ll be $10.52.
If you’re buying something, and you want to add the tax automatically, change the number before the decimal place to 1, so that you get:
1.0825 * 127.50 = 138.01875, which is $137.02 when you round it up.

If you lived in Pennsylvania, the tax would be $7.65 for a total of $135.15. If you lived in Delaware or New Hampshire the tax would be zero, as neither state has sales tax.
Depends on what the tax rate is. Are you talking about sales tax or income tax. Multiply the tax rate by your total ($127.50) and that will be your tax.
