Regular price = 100% is $100Discounted price = x% is $89
a)
If Janette pays $89 then the percentage paid compared to the original price is = 89/100 = 89%
b)
She received a discount of (100-89) % = 11%Please press the Thank You button and indicate as best answer if these are the answers you're looking for.
