A dinner bill of $31.37 had 6% tax added to the total. What was the amount of the tax?

To find the amount of the tax, we need to calculate 6% of the dinner bill.

Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal: 6% = 0.06

Step 2: Multiply the dinner bill by the decimal value of the tax rate:

Tax amount = $31.37 * 0.06 = $1.8822

Step 3: Round the tax amount to the nearest cent:

Tax amount = $1.88

Therefore, the amount of the tax on the dinner bill is $1.88.
