Question

On the first one I need to show work how I got the answer but I don't get it

Answer 1

Joe paid $25 for a $40 sweater, so we need to know what percent of 40 25 is.
25/40 is .625, or 62.5%. Subtract that from 100% and you get 37.5%, the answer to the question.


15% off would make the sweater $31, instead of $25.

Answer 2

0.15x40=25 give me thumbs up if it's right
