1) Complete the sales receipt if the sales tax is 7%:
- Badminton Racket: Amount = $46.90 * 5 = $234.50
- Baseball Bat: Amount = $52.00 * 2 = $104.00
- Billiard Stick: Amount = $17.30 * 2 = $34.60
- Tennis Racket: Amount = $34.05 * 4 = $136.20
- Subtotal = $234.50 + $104.00 + $34.60 + $136.20 = $509.30
- Sales Tax Amount = $509.30 * 0.07 = $35.65
- Total = $509.30 + $35.65 = $544.95
2) Complete the sales receipt if the sales tax is 2%:
- Skirt: Amount = $22.95 * 2 = $45.90
- Shirt: Amount = $18.00 * 7 = $126.00
- Jeans: Amount = $36.05 * 3 = $108.15
- Sweater: Amount = $5.15 * 9 = $46.35
- Subtotal = $45.90 + $126.00 + $108.15 + $46.35 = $326.40
- Sales Tax Amount = $326.40 * 0.02 = $6.53
