$21.16

$16.25

$27.09

Answer 1

To find the price of the watch during the sale, we need to calculate the 16% discount and subtract it from the regular price.

16% of $32.25 = 0.16 x $32.25 = $5.16

Price during the sale = Regular price - Discount = $32.25 - $5.16 = $27.09

Therefore, the price of the watch during the sale was $27.09.
