Answer: I think its $37.84625 according to the working shown :)

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of paper= $5.79, hence 2 is 2 x 5.79= 11.58

pens= $9.25

paperclips= $2.29

calendar= $12.50

Total= 11.58+9.25+2.29+12.50= 35.62

6.25% sales tax on total purchase= 6.25/100 x 35.62= $2.22625

Adding the sales tax: 35.62+2.22625‬= $37.84625‬‬
