much shipping will she pay

Respuesta :

Answer: She will pay $8 for shipping charge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The shop charges a $7.95 shipping fee or 6.25% of the total purchase (whichever is greater).

Total purchase = $128

6.25% of the total purchase. = 0.0625 x 128 = $8 [6.25% = 0.0625 , we divide percent by 100 to remove %]

Since $8> $7.95

So, she will pay $8 for shipping charge.
