  • I would start like this: Tax for $A$ is $ T_A = 0.1A$; Tax for $B$ is $T_B = 0.24B$. Then we know that $A+B=50$; $T_A + T_B = 8$. Can you continue from here? – Matti P. May 14 '20 at 12:45

Well, transfer the information into equations

\begin{align} 1.1A + 1.24 B &= 50 \\ 0.1A + 0.24B &= 8 \end{align}

And solve simultaneously.
