    yes nate has enough for the groceries.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    to get the 6% tax you have to do 46 *.06=2.76

    2.76 is the tax that would be charged, so nate's total would be $48.76 which is under his $50 dollar limit.

    Yes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    6% tax means he has to pay 106% of the bill.

    106% of 46

    106/100 * 46 = $48.76

    He has $50, so he does have sufficient money
