The total cost of shipping a package with the cost of $15 exclusive if 5% insurance is 15.75 dollars. This is calculate by getting first the 5% of 15 dollars, 15 dollars multiplied by 5%, equal to 0.75 dollars. Then it will be added to the shipping cost of 15, which is equal to 15.75 dollars.
If there are 26 bags EACH costing $9 then you would use equation A.
26 (The number of gift bags) x the price of each bag would cost close to $234. That would be the reasonable estimate and I hope this helps!
