Calculating a Percentage
Hi there,
I'm trying to separate GST from a total amount and am wondering if anyone has a formula that can help me do this. For example, I have a total of $901.07 and would like to know how much is the base amount and how much is the GST. I've tried to subtract 7% but that doesn't work out correctly. Does anyone have any suggestion??? Thanks very much |

BC sales tax .07, Gst .06 =.13. =(901.07/1.13)*.06 gives GSt paid
