We could use the numbers and the difference of the original cost - the end price in a equation.
53 × x/100 = 15.9
Cross multiply 100 × 15.9.
53x=1590
Divide both sides by 53.
x=30
The coupon was 30%

i think it is 30 because if you take 37.90 from 53.00 you get 15.90 and you calculate it like this:
15.90×100≈1590÷53≈30%
