Answer: $54.12

============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

If his father saves 18%, then he pays the remaining 82% since 100-18 = 82.

The 82% then converts to 0.82 which is one of the multipliers we'll use to get the answer.

The other multiplier is 1.10 to represent an increase of 10%

The net multiplier is 0.82*1.10 = 0.902

Therefore, his father pays 0.902*60 = 54.12 dollars after the discount and maintenance fee are applied.
