Answer:Explained

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

One shirt cost $24.97 and other costs $13.75

Using mental math, Payton rounds $24.97 to $25

and add it to $13.75 to get $38.75

in order to get correct total of two shirts Payton needs to subtract $0.03 from the final amount as she round 0.97 to 1 initially

so final amount will be 38.75-0.03=$38.72
