    Answer: The sale price of the sweatshirt is $15.3.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given.

    Price of sweatshirt: $18 Sale discount: 85% of the usual price. (0.85)

    So, we have to multiply the original price by the percentage (in decimals) to obtain the sale price.

    $18x 0.85 = $15.3

    In conclusion, the sale price is $15.3.

    Feel free to ask for more if it's necessary or if you did not understand something.

    I believe the question is saying a discount of 15% because each item is 85% of usual price.

    change percent to decimal and multiply by amount

    .15 x 18=2.70 is the discount.

    18.00-2.70=15.30 is the sale price
