A CD player is on sale for $90 at an electronics store. If the original price was $125, what was the percent of discount

1 answer:

8 0

This is the working of how it is 28% discount

Find the amount of discount : $125 - $90 = $35
Divide by the original price : $35/125 = 0.28
Change in to percentage : 0.28 x 100 = 28%

Therefore the percentage discount is 28% off
