First you need to find the amount for each of the items, then total it up:

T-shirts> 9.50 x 2 = 19
Socks> 7.95 x 3 = 23.85
Shoes> 49.95
Total: 19 + 23.85 + 49.95 = $92.80

Next find the tax:

(to find the taxes you multiply the total by the percent)
92.8 x 0.06 = 5.57
-- then add the amount to your item total
92.8 + 5.57 = 98.37

~OR~

You could multiply the item total by 1.06 so that you wouldn't have to add to taxes to the previous total because it is already part of the equation 

92.8 x 1.06 = 98.37
