Jim bought two shirts that were originally marked at $40 each. One shirt was discounted 20% and the other was discounted 25%. The sale tax was 4.5%. How much did he spend in all?

Answer 1

40 * 0.8 = 32

40 * 0.75 = 30

30 + 32 = 62

62 + 2.79 = 64.79

Answer 2

I missed the fourth step.

62 * 0.045 = 2.79
