Step-by-step explanation:

the original sum is

14.95+25.49+35.79 = $76.23

now, 25% are being deducted from the prices.

100% = $76.23

1% = 100%/100 = 76.23/100 = 0.7623

25% = 1% × 25 = 0.7623 × 25 = $19.0575

100% - 25% = 76.23 - 19.0575 = $57.1725

the new 100% is $57.1725.

now 5% sales tax is added.

1% = 0.571725

5% = 0.571725 × 5 = $2.858625

the full price at the register is therefore

57.1725 + 2.858625 = $60.031125

so, the second answer option is correct.
