To find the sale price of the shirt, we first calculate the amount of the discount and then subtract that from the regular price.
1. Calculate the discount amount:
\[
\text{Discount} = \text{Regular Price} \times \text{Discount Rate} = 56.90 \times 0.20 = 11.38
\]
2. Subtract the discount from the regular price to find the sale price:
\[
\text{Sale Price} = \text{Regular Price} - \text{Discount} = 56.90 - 11.38 = 45.52
\]
Thus, the sale price of the shirt is \( 45.52 \).
1. Calculate the discount amount:
\[
\text{Discount} = \text{Regular Price} \times \text{Discount Rate} = 56.90 \times 0.20 = 11.38

2. Subtract the discount from the regular price to find the sale price:
\[
\text{Sale Price} = \text{Regular Price} - \text{Discount} = 56.90 - 11.38 = 45.52

Thus, the sale price of the shirt is \( 45.52 \).
