Q. Erin bought a beach umbrella online. It cost $65\$65 plus 5%5\% shipping and handling. What was the total cost? \newline$\$____\_\_\_\_
  1. Calculate Fee: Calculate the shipping and handling fee. \newline5%5\% of $65\$65 is calculated by multiplying 6565 by 0.050.05.\newlineCalculation: 65×0.05=3.2565 \times 0.05 = 3.25
  2. Find Total Cost: Add the shipping and handling fee to the original price to find the total cost.\newlineTotal cost = Original price + Shipping and handling fee\newlineCalculation: 65+3.25=68.2565 + 3.25 = 68.25
