The discounted selling price would be $1530. If you were to multiply 0.15 to 1800 you would get the amount of money you no longer have to pay. However you want to know the amount of money you still have to pay so you will subtract 15% from 100% and get 85%, you will then multiply .85 to 1800.

Final answer: $1530
