Solution Steps

To find out how much will be saved when a watch is marked 1/5 off the regular price, we need to calculate the discount amount first. This can be done by multiplying the regular price by 1/5. Then, the amount saved will be the discount amount.

Step 1: Calculate the discount amount

Given:

  • Regular price, \(46.6\)
  • Discount rate, \(0.2\)

The discount amount can be calculated by multiplying the regular price by the discount rate: \[ \text{Discount amount} = 46.6 \times 0.2 = 9.32 \]

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{9.32} \]
