 For this case we can make the following rule of three:
 2.99 ----------> 100%
 x --------------> 7%
 From here, we clear the value of x.
 We have then:
 \(x = (7/100) * (2.99)\)
 Rewriting the expression we have:
 \(x = (0.07) * (2.99) x = 0.2093 $\)
 Answer:
 The sales taxes are:
 x = 0.2093 $

We have been given that the cost of an item is $2.99. We are asked to find the amount of 7% tax for the given item.

To find the amount of tax, we need to figure out 7% of $2.99.
