Store A sells a watch for $50 and offers a 5% discount. Store B sells the same watch for $60 and offers a 20% discount. The sales tax is 6% for both . After discounts and taxes are applied, from which store should you buy the watch and why?

Store A
50*5%=2.5
50-2.5=47.5
47.5+(6%*47.5)=$50.35
Store B
20%*60=12
60-12=48
48+(6%*48)=$50.88
I would but the watch from store A because it would be 53 cents cheaper.
