Answer: The percentage of the original price was his discount = 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: original price = $60

Price after discount = $54

Discount = Price after discount - original price

= $ (60-54) = $6

The percentage of the original price was his discount = $\dfrac{Discount}{Original\ price}\times100$

$=\dfrac{6}{60}\times100\%\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\times100\%\\\\=10\%$

Hence, the percentage of the original price was his discount = 10%

D = rt what does r stand for

AnnyKZ [126]

In the equation D = rt, the r stands for rate. The equation is saying that distance equals the rate at which you traveled multiplied with the time you traveled. In other words, r is the speed traveled. Example: If the rate at which you travel is 35 miles per hour and you traveled for 2 hours, then you have traveled 35 miles times 2 or 70 miles.
