Answer:

$0.18 sales tax will be added to the purchase price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of cupcake = $3

Sales tax applied = 6%

Amount of sales tax = 6% of cost of cupcake

Amount of sales tax = [tex]\frac{6}{100}*3[/tex]

Amount of sales tax = 0.06 * 3 = $0.18

Hence,

$0.18 sales tax will be added to the purchase price.
