    Multiply 20x. 01 which equals 2. subtract that from 20 wich gives you 18

    $18

    multiply 18x. 085 which equals 1.53. add that to 18 and that is your answer

    $19.53 after

    The shirt is $18 before taxes are applied.

    10% of 20 is 2. 20-2=18.

    After taxes are applied the shirt is $19.53.

    8.5% of 18 is 1.53. 1.53 + 18 = $19.53
