Wendy bought a wallet for $16.99,a key case for $10.95, and a duffel bag for $15.99 including sales tax of 5% what was the total bill

Question

I need help. I'm not very good at percentage 

Answer 1

First, add up the 3 purchases of $16.99, $10.95, and $15.99 

 

The total bill will be the above sum plus 5% of the sum.  Multiply the above sum by 1.05 and that will give you the total bill.  Can you finish from here?
