to  start this problem you should turn the percent into a decimal really easy to do just move the decimal sign two places in front of where the % sign is . now that you have the decimal multiply by the original price (.38 x 22.0) you should get 8.36 The last step is to subtract from the original price the new price 13.64 any questions ask below
