Answer:

$37.26

Explanation:

firstly, we find the total original price: $34 + $12 = $46.

next, we can multiply this by 100% - 25% = 75% to find the discounted price:

$46 × 75%

= $46 ÷ 100 × 75

= $34.50

finally, add on the sales tax which is 100% + 8% = 108%:

$34.50 × 108%

= $34.50 ÷ 100 × 108

= $37.26

i hope this helps! :D
