    The shoes now cost 28.14. There are many ways of calculating your discount and final purchase price. One way is to multiply 42 dollars by 33 percent, and then divide the answer by one hundred, then subtract that result from the original price. If you follow these steps, you come up with your answer. You save 13.86.

    Simple ... this is a discount problem.

    To find the answer to this problem you can find the net price percentage of the shoes by doing ...

    100%-33%=67%

    Now ... multiply the original price by the net price percentage ...

    $42*0.67=$28.14

    Thus, the shoes after the discount cost, $28.14
