Answer:The total price of the shoes, including tax is $38.88
Explanation:
The original price of the pair of shoes is $60. If the shoes are 40% off, it means that it was reduce by an amount. The amount by which the original price of the shoe was reduced would be
40/100 × 60 = 0.4 × 60 = $24
The discounted price would be
60 - 24 = $36
Since there is a sales tax of 8%, the value of the sales tax would be
8/100 × 36 = 0.08 × 36 = $2.88
The total price of the shoes, including tax would be
36 + 2.88 = $38.88
