Answer:

[tex]\$57.31[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost would simply be given by multiplying the price by 1.027

1) Divide the tax (2.7%) by 100  and then, add 1 unit

[tex]\frac{2.7}{100}=0.027+1\Rightarrow 1.027[/tex]

2) Multiply by the price ($55.80):

[tex]1.027*\$55.8\approx \$57.31[/tex]
