We know that
• Each ice cream costs $3.
,• Sales tax is 6%.
,• The total amount of money is $24.
Let's find the unit price including sales tax.
[tex]3+0.06(3)=3+0.18=3.18[/tex]So, each ice cream costs $3.18 with sales tax included. Now, we divide $242 by this price to get the total number of ice creams we can buy
[tex]\frac{24}{3.18}=7.5[/tex]
