First we would need to find the portion of the gymnasium to the blueprint to do that please do this:
88/5.5 = 16
The length divided by the blueprint's length
Since we know that the gymnasium is 16 times the blueprint, to find the width divide 16 to 76:
76/16 = 4.75
The width divided by the 16 times
The width of the blueprint is 4.75 inches
Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
