Answer:

$37.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of the shoes before tax is 100% of the price of the shoes.

Then the tax adds 5.5% of the price of the shoes to the price of the shoes.

He ends up paying 100% + 5.5% of the price of the shoes.

100% + 5.5% = 105.5%

Now we find 105.5% of $35.99.

105.5% of $35.99 = 1.055 × $35.99 = $37.96945

Answer: $37.97
