Question

Javier has been saving for a digital camera. He finds one on sale for $67.50. It usually costs $90.00. What is the percent of discount?

Answer 1

Original price of camera = 90
Price of camera after discount = 67.50
Discount amount = (90-67.5)
                            = 22.5

so the percentage of discount = (22.5 / 90) * 100
                                                = 25 %
