The answer is 16.

—Explanation—
•] You can calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 10.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $16 as follows: $16 x .10 = $1.60 savings.
•] you get the final price by simply deducting .10 from 1 and multiplying it by $16 as follows: (1 - .10) x $16 = $14.40 final price.
