To find the price of these socks you will have to find the 18% of the total price first:
[tex]18\text{percent}=\frac{price\times18}{100}=\frac{15.25\times18}{100}=\frac{274.5}{100}=2.745[/tex]Then, you just have to substract this amount to the total price:
[tex]15.25-2.745=12.505[/tex]Rounded to the nearest tenth is: $12.5
