Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the regular price of the carpet.
Then:
sale price = regular price less discount
$374 = c - $66
Adding $66 to both sides isolates (solves for) c:
$374 + $66 = c = $440. This is the regular price.
$66
---------- = 0.15 This is the fraction of the regular price by
$440 which the regular price is reduced.
Then the percentage of this discount was 0.15(100%) = 15%
-0.75 is a rational number because it can be expressed as the fraction -3/4 and it is an integer
Your answer is 110. You take 10 and divide it by 750. = 75 then you take 75. Divided 8250. = 110
