A limo costs $85 to rent for 3 hours plus a 7% sales tax. What is the total cost to rent the limo for 6 hours?
Determine the number of 3 hour blocks:
3 hour blocks = Total Rental Time / 3
3 hour blocks = 6 hours / 3
3 hour blocks = 2
With 7% = 0.07, we have:
Total Cost = $85 * / 3 hours * 2 (3 hour blocks) * 1.07
Total Cost = 85 * 2 * 1.07
Total Cost = 181.9
