FIND SALE PRICE
= $230 - ($230*20%)
= $230 - $46
= $184

OR

= $230 * (100%-20%)
= $230 * 80%
= $184

*use the method you're most comfortable with or that your teachers prefer

FIND TOTAL WITH TAX
= $184 + ($184 * 11.5%)
= $184 + $21.16
= $205.16

ANSWER: The shoes with discount and taxes cost $205.16.

Hope this helps! :)
