Answer 1

To find the sale price of the calendar, we first need to calculate the amount of the discount, which is 1/3 of the regular price.

1. Calculate the discount: \[ \text{Discount} = \frac{1}{3} \times 14.55 = \frac{14.55}{3} = 4.85 \]

2. Subtract the discount from the regular price to find the sale price: \[ \text{Sale Price} = \text{Regular Price} - \text{Discount} = 14.55 - 4.85 = 9.70 \]

Thus, the sale price of the calendar is $9.70.
