Answer:

Ron will pay $2 for the book of poems if he buys it during the sale

Explanation:

To determine the sale price of the book of poems, you need to first calculate the discount that Ron will receive. To do this, multiply the original price of the book by the discount percentage: $8 * 0.75 = $6.

Then subtract the discount from the original price to find the sale price: $8 - $6 = $2.

So Ron will pay $2 for the book of poems if he buys it during the sale.
