Answer 1

The total cost to ship the package with insurance is $15.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the total cost of shipping the package, we need to add the shipping charge of $15 with 5% of that charge for the insurance. The insurance charge can be calculated by multiplying the shipping charge by 5% (or 0.05). So, the insurance charge will be 0.05 * $15 = $0.75. Adding this to the shipping charge, the total cost will be $15 + $0.75 = $15.75.
