Erin finds 5% sales tax for a shirt that costs $21. She calculates the tax as
0.05 * 21 = 1.05 or $1.05.
Erin notices that she can add 21 + 1.05 = 22.05 to find the total cost, $22.05.
She uses the Distributive Property to write (1 * 21) + (0.05 * 21) = 1.05 * 21.
For each item, write the total cost of
the item as the product of two
