Initial cost of vacuum cleaner is = 248
tax is 6% = 6/100. 248 x 0.06 = 14.88
Thus, final cost of vacuum cleaner is 248 + 14.88 =  $262.88
That is one expensive vacuum cleaner

The answer is $262.88

First you need to multiply the 6% from $248
$248x.06%= $14.88

Now you know that 6% of $248 is $14.88

Now you just need to add the $14.88 to the Orignal price of the vacuum $248

$248+$14.88= $262.88 <---- Answer
