The answers to number 1 &2
1. $90.23
2. $64.86

Answer:

(A) $90.23

(B) $64.86                

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) Given, The cost of one skirt = $18.27

The cost of one shirt = $15.78, Then cost of two shirt = 2 × $15.78 =$ 31.56

and The cost of pair of shoes = $34.50

Thus, I have done total purchase of $18.27 + $31.56 + $34.50 = $84.33.

And, paying the tax of 7%

The total cost I spend = $84.33 × (100 + 7)% = $90.23

(B) Given, The cost of one sweater = $17.99, Then cost of two sweater = 2 × $18.27 =$ 35.98

The cost of one slack = $25.50

Thus, I have done total purchase of $35.98 + $25.50 = $61.48.

And, paying the tax of 5.5%

The total cost I spend = $61.48 × (100 + 5.5)% = $64.86
