Answer: $36.3

Explanation:

Since Christopher bought 3 toy trucks that costs $14.25 each. Then, the cost of the three toys will be:

= 3 × $14.25

= $42.75

Then, if he used a coupon for 15% off of the total purchase, then the final purchase will be:

= $42.75 - (15% × $42.75)

= $42.75 - (0.15 × $42.75)

= $42.75 - $6.4125

= $36.3375

= $36.3
