Given:

$79 hoodie is on sale for 25% off

We can solve or express this in many ways;

If it is 25% off, then the price is;

(100% - 25%) x 79

= (75%) x 79

= (0.75) (79)

OR

The price is;

79 - 25%(79)

= 79 - (0.25)(79)

OR

0.75 x 79 is the same as;

(1 - 0.25)(79)

Therefore, the expression or equation that is NOT equivalent to the rest is

25/100 (79)
