Susan went shopping to purchase new clothes. She

bought a shirt for $28 and a pair of pants for $17. She is
trying to figure out how much her total will be before
heading to the cashier (including sales tax). If NY state
charges 8.875% as sales tax, what will Susan's total cost
be for her purchase?
