Answer:


\$31

Explanation:

A sale is a transaction between two parties in which the buyer receives goods or services.

Price of the good is the amount that the buyer has to pay for the goods or the services.

Actual price of the shirt that Karim wants to buy =
\$46.50

Deduction in price as it is on sale for 1/3 off =
(1)/(3)* 46.50=\$15.5

Therefore,

amount that Karim needs to pay to buy the shirt = Actual price of the shirt that Karim wants to buy - Deduction in price as it is on sale for 1/3 off =
\$46.50-\$15.5=\$31
