Answer:

The employee discount is 30% off. Here's the process to find this answer:


Calculate the difference between the original price and the discounted price. We're trying to find the percentage of the discount, not the percentage 38.50 is of 55.

55 - 38.5 = 16.5

Multiply the difference by 100 as part of the percentage formula. (is over of is equal to the percentage over one hundred)

16.5 * 100 = 1,650

Divide your result by 55 as the final part of the percentage formula.

1,650 / 55 = 30
