Orlando buys a shirt for $15 and a pair of jeans for $32.50.If the sales tax is 8%,what is the total price Orlando pays for the items. F. $47.88
G. $43.70
H.$51.30
J.$85.50

First, add 15 and 32.50 to get the total price. This should equal 47.5. Then, proceed to multiply by .08, because this represents 8%, which is the tax. You should get 3.8. That is the tax. Add the total and the tax, which is 47.5 plus 3.8, which equals 51.3. H is the correct answer.

15 + $32.50 + 8% = $51.30

15 + 32.50 = 47.50

8% × 47.50 = 3.80

47.50 + 3.80 = 51.30
