    Sales tax is 8.33 % of new total

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let

    Your bill = 1000

    New total 60%=1000*60/100=600

    5% sale tax on whole bill price = 1000*5/100=50

    To deduct 5% sale tax in 60% of new total the % are=50/600=0.0833*100=8.33%

    So,

    Sale tax is 8.33% of new total 60%.
