Answer: 57.89 $

Step-by-step explanation:

67 $/1 x 80/100 = 53.6 $

*Here, 80% is used to represent the cost of the shoes. Since they are 20% off, you are actually paying 80% of the price.

Final price of shoes = price of shoes + (price of shoes x sales tax)

final price of shoes = 53.6 $ + (53.6 x 0.08%)

final price of shoes = 53.6$ + 4.29 $

final price of shoes = 57.89 $
