Answer:  C) $1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : All batteries were listed on sale for 15% off the regular price.

Discount price = 15%=0.15

Keith usually pays $6.99 for a battery for his watch.

Discount amount = \(\text{Price of a battery }\times\text{Discount percent}\)

\(=\$6.99\times0.15\\\\=\$1.0485\approx\$1.05\ \ \text{[ Rounded to the nearest cent.]}\)

Hence, discount will Keith receive on his purchase of a new watch battery = $1.05
