(a) To calculate how much money you will save, you need to find 15% of $45.
15% of $45 = 0.15 * $45 = $6.75
Therefore, you will save $6.75.
(b) To calculate how much money you will spend on the jacket, you need to subtract the amount you saved (15% of $45) from the original price of the jacket ($45).
$45 - $6.75 = $38.25
Therefore, you will spend $38.25 on the jacket.
