Step 1) Find the sales tax

To find the sales tax, we need to find out what 5% of 60 is. To do so, we can multiply 60 by 0.05 (5% in decimal form).

60 x 0.05 = 3.00

The sales tax is $3.00.

Step 2) Find the total cost of the shirt

To find the total cost of the shirt, we need to add the cost of the shirt and the sales tax together.

60 + 3 = 63.00

The total cost of the shirt is $63.00.

Hope this helps! :)
