Question

Vicky made some purchases at the sunflower market. She bought strawberries for $3.50, carrots for $2.25 and a bouquet of flowers for $9.95. If sales tax is 5 percent, what will Maria pay altogether.

Answer 1

You need to add $3.50 and $2.25 to get $5.75. Then you need to add it to 5%. I used a calculator to get $6.0375. I think it would be $6.04.
