Respuesta :

step 1

Find out how much is the sales tax in Connecticut

we have

6.35%=6.35/100=0.0635

Multiply by $120.00

120.00*(0.0635)=$7.62

step 2

Find out how much is the sales tax in Missouri

we have

4.225%=4.225/100=0.04225

Multiply by $120.00

120.00*(0.04225)=$5.07

step 3

Find the difference

so

7.62-5.07=$2.55

therefore

the answer is $2.55
