Answer :

The charge on fruit by the store is with tax.

Explain the term tax?

  • Taxes are compulsory payments made by a government organization, whether municipal, regional, or federal, to people or businesses.
  • Tax revenues are used to fund a variety of government initiatives, such as Medicare and Social Security as well as public infrastructure and services like roads and schools.

For the stated question-

The price of fruit = $2.0

The price charged by the store = $2.8.

Difference = 2.8 = 2.0 = 0.8

Thus, tax paid

2.0 x %/100 = 0.8

x = 0.8 x 100 / 2

x = 40%

Thus, the price charge by store for the fruit was including tax.
