Turn the scenario into a division problem: how many 100s fit into 3,200? Compute 3,200 ÷ 100. Removing the two zeros leaves 32, so thirty-two 100s make up 3,200.

Answer:
$8.19
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, sum the prices of all items together
5.3 + 1.29 + 0.53 + 0.68 = 7.8
2. Next, calculate 5% of the total item cost
5% = 0.05
7.8 · 0.05 = 0.39
3. Finally, add the sales tax to the initial item total
7.8 + 0.39 = 8.19
