Sales tax is charged on top of a sticker price in most U.S. states, so the register total equals the net price times one-plus the rate. Going the other direction — extracting the tax from a receipt total — requires dividing instead of subtracting, a step people frequently get wrong.
Rates vary not just by state but by county and city, and different product categories can carry different rates. Always use the specific rate that applies to your purchase and location.
