    Assuming that the discount of the third shirt is 50 %

    It means kenny paid (0.5*49.96) for the third shirt which is 24.98

    For the first three shirts he paid 49.96

    The total cost would therefore be;

    49.96+49.96+24.98 = 124.9

    Adding a tax of 7.1% the total cost becomes;

    1.071 * 124.9 = 133.7679

    The mean cost per shirt will therefore be;

    133.7679/3

    = 44.5893

    ≈44.59
