Question

Lydia sells intricately shaped holiday soaps for $9 each. After each holiday, she marks the related soap down to $6.75. What percent discount should she advertise on her social media site?​

Answer 1

Need to find the amount of the discount first

(9 - 6.75)  = 2.25$

then find the %                                                            

(2.25/9) * 100 = 225/9 = 25%
