Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The cost of the picnic table is $553.20 \$553.20 .
2. The shipping and handling fee is 15% 15\% of the cost of the picnic table.
3. We need to calculate the total cost including the shipping and handling fee.

STEP 2

1. Calculate the shipping and handling fee.
2. Calculate the total cost.

STEP 3

Calculate the shipping and handling fee by finding 15% 15\% of the cost of the picnic table.
Shipping and Handling Fee=0.15×553.20\text{Shipping and Handling Fee} = 0.15 \times 553.20

STEP 4

Perform the multiplication to find the shipping and handling fee.
Shipping and Handling Fee=0.15×553.20=82.98\text{Shipping and Handling Fee} = 0.15 \times 553.20 = 82.98

STEP 5

Add the shipping and handling fee to the original cost of the picnic table to find the total cost.
Total Cost=553.20+82.98\text{Total Cost} = 553.20 + 82.98

STEP 6

Perform the addition to find the total cost.
Total Cost=553.20+82.98=636.18\text{Total Cost} = 553.20 + 82.98 = 636.18
The total cost including shipping and handling is:
636.18\boxed{636.18}
