On TurboTax online - I found a line which is asking me - 'what is property taxes included in your car registration fees?'

I am in state of WA - how do I find this value?

I believe I can not deduct entire car registration fees of $198.85 as an deductible expense correct?

because I used it for both personal and business uses.

 

So out of $198.85 I paid for car registration - how much I can deduct as expense?

    NONE ... WA state doesn't have a PP tax on personal vehicles. 

     

    Vehicles: Personal property tax
    applies to vehicles that are used
    off-road and not primarily designed
    for use on public streets or highways,
    licensed or not.
    Taxable vehicles include:
     Vehicles used entirely upon private
    property
     Special highway construction
    equipment, such as earth moving
    and paving equipment.
     Farm vehicles
     Off-road vehicles
     Racing vehicles
