Math Story problem? Any help?

Sara bought 3 pairs of socks for $2.99 each and one pair of shoes for $27.98. If the sales tax was 5%, how much did Sara pay in total?

2.99 x 3 = 8.97 + 27.98 = 36.95

36.95 x 5 = 184.75 / 100 = 1.8475

36.95 + 1.8475 = 38.7975

she spent 38.7975

2.99*3=8.97

8.97+27.98=36.95

36.95*5%=1.8475

1.85+36.95=38.8
