You've GOT to be kidding - can't get past 2/5?? help?

I keep getting the error: Oops, try again. It looks like tax is 3.00375 instead of 0.0675. tax is supposed to be the decimal value of 6.75%

even tho my code is:

meal = 44.50 tax = 6.75 / 100 how can anything so SIMPLE be an issue? doesn’t say I’m to calculate the AMOUNT of tax yet, just the rate!
