    Lauren is wrong

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1. Lauren is wrong

    2. What's the cost of the shirts before tax

    Each shirt cost $15 and the total = $15 x 3 = $45

    3. How much is the sales tax for all shirts

    Sale tax for all shirts is $45 x 0.08 = $3.6

    4. What is the total cost of the shirts, including tax?

    Total cost = $45 + $3.6 = $48.60
