  $6

Step-by-step explanation:

15% is the ratio of the price increase to the original price.

As a fraction 15% = 15/100 (fifteen hundredths).

As a decimal, 15% = 0.15 (fifteen hundredths).

The statement about the price increase is telling you ...

  (increase)/(original) = 0.15

Multiplying by the original price, we get ...

  (increase) = 0.15×(original) = 0.15 × $40 = $6.00

The price of the shirt went up $6.00.
