Input: - the number of office supply items requested by our department for the Fall semester 2016
- the price for all those items (tax not included)
Output:
- the prices of all items requested, after applying the sales tax (6%)
- the average price after tax
Hint: You should use two arrays of real numbers in order to store the prices of all items before and after tax
Example of Running:
Input the number of office supply items needed: 3
Input the prices (before tax) for all 3 items:
16.99
100.25
25.50
The prices after tax are:
$18.00
$106.26
