$4 is the original price of the jar consisting of peanut butter so therefor it = 100%. It's for sale at $3.60, so we divide $4 by 100% so we get the percentage for each cent and then we times it by 3.60 to get the percentage for $3.60 which is 90%. Now we subtract 90% from 100% to get the discounted percentage for 40cents :)
Is that meant to be 10 to the power of 6?
Assuming it is it would be 10×10×10×10×10×10.
This equals 1,000,000 so the answer is C.
