Question

a party-size bag of torilla chips normally costs $3.80. The supermarket has them on sale for $2.85. What is the percentage of this discount?
a. 25%
b. 95%
c. 133%
d. 75%

Answer 1

The percentage of the discount is a 25% off the bag of chips

Answer 2

3.80 × x% = 2.85
x% = 2.85 ÷ 3.80
x% = 0.75
75% is what the person payed of the normal price 3.80$
So the discount was 100-75=25
25%
So the answer is A 25%
