Stacy Hammond · Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out what percent 8,700 is of 580,000 and apply the same percentage to 450,000.

8,700 / 580,000 then multiply by 100 which makes 15%

Take 15% of 350,000, which is the same as multiplying by 0.015 and get

0.015 x $350,000 = $52,500

The tax is $52,500.
