A sport watch with an original price of $86 is on sale for $60.20. What is the percent of discount?

Respuesta :

You need to first calculate the amount of lost money, which is 86-60.2=25.8 To find the discount, you need to put this over the initial price, or 86. This equals 0.3, which is 30 percent.

To work this out, you do:

original price - sale price = x
(x ÷ original price) × 100 = percentage%.

So when you substitute the values in, you get:

86 - 60.20 = 25.80
(25.80 ÷ 86) × 100 = 30%

The answer is 30%.
