Okay. In order to find the percent of the original, let’s divide the discounted price into the original price. 56.49/89.99 is 0.6277 and other numbers behind it or 0.63 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. Now, multiply it by 100 to get the percentage and you get 63. There. Raymond pays 63% of the original price.

To find the percentage you will take 85.99-56.49=29.5 then take that and divide it by 100 which comes to .295 and you would round up making it 30% is the discount
hope this makes sense and helps good luck let me know if it's wrong
