Therefore the total sale tax will be $ 8.6934

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, Eric bought a suitcase for $39.95, a garment bag for $79.95 and briefcase for $26.99.

The sale tax on the above items is 6%.

6% sale tax means if a item price $100 then sale tax is $6.

$\textrm{sale tax of a item}=\frac{\textrm{price of the item}}{100}\times 6$

The sale tax of the suitcase is $=\$( \frac{39.95}{100}\times 6)$

=$ 2.397

The sale tax of the garment bag $=\$( \frac{79.95}{100}\times 6)$

=$ 4.797

The sale tax of the briefcase $=\$(\frac{24.99}{100}\times 6)$

=$ 1.4994

Therefore the total sale tax will be = $(2.397+4.797+1.4994)

=$ 8.6934
