You would solve this by writing it as a porpotion. It would be 25/100=161.25/x. Then, you would multiply the 100 and 161.25, which would get you 16125, then you would divide this by 25, which would get you your answer : $645.

there is $25 off every hundred so 161.25 so we would take 100 off for the 25% off so we got 61.25 my guessing is she might wanna save about 36,25 is there any answer choices ? Thank you please chose as best :) always happy to help you
