    You need to find the final price of the shoes before finding the sales tax. Don't find 56 - 35%, that answer will be wrong.

    40% = 0.4

    56 * 0.4 = 22.4

    56 - 22.4 = 33.6

    5% = 0.05

    33.6 * 0.05 = 1.68

    33.6 + 1.68 = 35.28

    The total price of the shoes, including tax, is $35.28
