I have a bike tire which measures 26 x 47/50, what size tube do I need to get? The sizes I found aren't notated in this fashion.?

Update:

Going to a bike shop is not an option, as there are none where I live. Hence, the reason I'm asking the question. I need to order the tubes online. Can anyone tell me what the 47/50 stands for and what the equivalent measurement is so I know what to order?

    Get a 26" tube the same width as the tire size. It's written on the box a tube comes in. If that's too hard to figure out, go to a bike shop.

    No such thing to my knowledge - unless it's maybe a fat tire bike. Tubes are carried at your local BICYCLE SHOP. Take the bike with you - go there - ask them.
