Answer:

discount percent = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mia bought a poster that was discounted $5 from an original price of $20

Original price is $20

Discount amount is $5

Let x be the percentage of discount

Discount % is x%

original price times discount percentage is equal to discount amount

[tex]20 \cdot \frac{x}{100} = 5[/tex]

multiply both times by 100

[tex]20x= 500[/tex]

Divide both sides by 20

x= 25%

So discount percent = 25%
