You go to the mall to make some purchases. You buy 3 dresses which cost $59.99 each and a pair of shoes that cost $75. What is the bill you will pay if the tax is 8%?

Combine costs
59.99(3) + 75 = 179.97 + 75
179.97 + 75 = $254.99 (total cost)
Now add tax: 8% = 0.08
254.99 * 0.08 = 20.3992
254.99 + 20.3992 = 275.3892

Solution: bill would be around $275
