$41.98
Take the $49.50 multiply it by 20% = 9.90
Subtract the $9.90 from $49.50 + $36.90
Multiply $39.60 by 1.06 or 6% = $41.976

first of all, you have to pay the taxes on the full price, so it is six percent of 49.50. to get the solution, you have to multiply 49.50 times .06; that will be the tax, then you add this amount to 49.50
the twenty percent will come off the 49.50, not the value with the tax added. so multiply 49.50 times .2 this is how much you take off the the 49.50 plus tax amount. you do the math

49.50 x .20 = the discount from the original price so subtract this from 49.50. Then take that number and multiply .06. Take that number and add it to the new sale price.
41.98

49.50 * .80 = 39.60
39.60 * .06 = 41.98

$49.50 * 0.8 * 1.06 = $41.98
I assume you meant 6% tax, not .6%
but if you really meant .6%
$49.50 * 0.8 * 1.006 = $39.84

10% is $4.95, so multiply by 2 to get 20% = $9.90

You should not be buying expensive shirts if your arithmetic is so weak.
