A shirt was originally priced at $25. The store is having a 15% off sale.

How much will you pay for the shirt after the discount (not including tax)?

To calculate the price of the shirt after a 15% discount:

1. The original price of the shirt is $25.
2. The discount amount is 15% of $25.

We can find the discount amount by multiplying $25 by 15% (or 0.15):
\[
\text{Discount} = 25 \times 0.15 = 3.75
\]

3. Subtract the discount from the original price:
\[
\text{Final Price} = 25 - 3.75 = 21.25
\]

So, the price of the shirt after the discount is **$21.25**.
