Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the decimal form of the percentage.

[tex]\frac{8.2}{100} =0.082[/tex]

Then, multiply it by the total.

[tex]49*0.082=4.018[/tex]

4.018 rounded to the nearest cent is [tex]4.02[/tex].

[tex]49+4.02=53.02[/tex]

:)

$53.02 - the pictures shows the steps and then you round up from 49+4.018=53.018 to get $53.02
