Answer:

Total amount pay by Ben = $82.27 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2 Shirts = $16 each

3 pairs of socks = $2.50 each

1 pair of jeans = $37.75 each

Sales tax = 6.5%

Find:

Total amount pay by Ben

Computation:

Total amount for shirts = 2 x 16

Total amount for shirts = $32

Total amount for socks = 3 x 2.50

Total amount for shirts = $7.50

Total amount before tax = $32 + $7.50 + $37.75

Total amount before tax = $77.25

Total amount pay by Ben = Total amount before tax[1+tax]

Total amount pay by Ben = 77.25[1+6.5%]

Total amount pay by Ben = $82.27 (Approx.)
