Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To write a percentage as a decimal, you move the decimal place to the left two digits, so 15.8% as a decimal is 0.158.

To find the percentage of a certain number, you multiply it this percent by the certain number.

0.158×43000=6794

So, Sarah will have to pay $6,794.

Have a wonderful day! :D
