Answer:

A) The percentage of tax paid by Karen on the Laptop is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of the laptop = $1800

The tax amount on laptop = $36

Let us assume the tax paid on the laptop = m %

⇒ m% of the selling price = Tax Amount

or, m % of $1800   = $36

[tex]\implies \frac{m}{100} \times 1800  = 36\\or, m = \frac{36 \times 100}{1800}  = 2[/tex]

⇒ m = 2 %

or 2 % of $1800 = $36

Hence, the percentage of tax paid by Karen on the Laptop is 2%
