Remember that if there is a 25% discount, then the amount you are paying represents 75%. We know the original price (ie 100%)
There are several methods.
Simplest: Find 25% of the$40 and subtract to find the price to be paid.

We must select a counter-example that makes the conclusion false. 

3 is a prime, 5 is a prime, and 7 is a prime. 
The conclusion is that all odd numbers are prime numbers. 
A counter example is that 9 is an odd number but it is NOT a prime number.
