The amount of the discount is:
$54 x 0.25 = $13.50
The sale price of the jacket is:
$54 - $13.50 = $40.50
The sales tax on the jacket is:
$40.50 x 0.06 = $2.43
Therefore, the total amount Jane will pay for the jacket, including tax, is:
$40.50 + $2.43 = $42.93
$54 x 0.25 = $13.50
The sale price of the jacket is:
$54 - $13.50 = $40.50
The sales tax on the jacket is:
$40.50 x 0.06 = $2.43
Therefore, the total amount Jane will pay for the jacket, including tax, is:
$40.50 + $2.43 = $42.93
