Answer 1

25% = 25/100 = 0.25

9*0.25 = 2.25.

You save $2.25 with the discount.

Answer 2

$2.25.

Step by step explanation:

We have been given that the cake store is having a 25% off sale on all of its cakes.

To find our savings with the discount we will find 25% of $9 (regular cost of cake).

`\text{Savings with the discount}=9*(25)/(100)`

`\text{Savings with the discount}=9*(1)/(4)`

`\text{Savings with the discount}=(9)/(4)=2.25`

Therefore, we will save $2.25 with the given discount.
