Question

the original price of a collectible model airplane is $115. The discounted price is $99. What is the percent of discount to the nearest percent

Answer 1

$99/$115 x 100% = 86.086% of the original price

So 100% - 86.086

= 13.9 = 14%

Or you could just do (115 - 99) x 100 which gets the same answer.
