8 ft or 4 ft

Since sales tax goes after the discount, it would be 3 dollars and 20 cents. Taking 50 dollars and 20% is discounted (50*.2), which would be 10 dollars taken off. It would be 40 dollars shoes and then you apply sales tax by multiplying 40 by .08, giving you the amount of tax paid.
You could do this in two ways, you could either subtract immediately or convert the time given in hours into minutes
STEP 1:
8:10
- 7:40
which will give 0:30
STEP 2:
8 hours 10 minutes into minutes is
(8 * 60) +10 = 490 minutes
7 hours 40 minutes into minutes is
(7*40) + 40 = 460 minutes
490 - 460
= 30minutes
It should be a positive 5 not a negative so the error was made at the end because u divide
