Explore the Math  Pages 28 - 29

Read/Work through this section of your textbook.
These ideas will be developed in the examples

Note,  I would expect that any questions that involve taxes (G.S.T.  and P.S.T.) will GIVE you the rate to use.

The rates change all the time,  some provinces have P.S.T.,  some don't , etc.

I don't think this is something you need to worry about.

You need to know HOW to apply a percentage to find a price, but you will be GIVEN the percentage.

Notes!

For any questions that need a percentage for an added tax,  use Table 1.1 on page 29 in your book.
It’s no longer accurate, but it’s the PROCESS, not the percentage amounts that really matter.

Question 7 is totally subjective,  so you may decide to skip it.   
I DID make a video if you want to watch it and see how I tackled the problem.
