To find the total amount of money Riley needs to earn, we need to add the state sales tax to the price of the jacket.
First, we need to calculate the sales tax amount by multiplying the price of the jacket by the tax rate: $49.99 * 7.25% = $3.624775.
Now, we can add the sales tax to the price of the jacket: $49.99 + $3.624775 = $53.614775.
Therefore, Riley needs to earn a total of $53.614775 to purchase the new jacket.
