Scroll down to the Combined Rating Table.  20 + 20 = 36 

                                                                              36 + 10 =  42

                                                                                42 + 10 =  48

For a total of 50%

BINGO!  Sorry to say, but new members/vets need to learn the strange ways of the VA-Math when it comes to tallying total disabilities, aka multiple disabilities...

Sorry but true... 8-(
