Question

Your company sells small objects that are heavy for their size. They require a 15% shipping and handling charge for all orders. The customer has ordered two items that total $37.00.

How much will the customer pay for shipping and handling?

Answer 1

42.55

Explanation:

To calculate the total cost including the shipping and handling charge, we need to add 15% of the order total to the original amount.

The order total is $37.00.

let's calculate the shipping and handling charge:

= 15% of $37.00

= (15/100) * $37.00

= $5.55

Now, we can calculate the total cost including the shipping and handling charge:

Total Cost = Order Total + Shipping and Handling Charge

Total Cost = $37.00 + $5.55

Total Cost = $42.55

The total cost for the customer's order, including the 15% shipping and handling charge, is $42.55.
