Question

Andy bought a game system on sale for $194.70. It was originally priced at $220.

What is the percent of the discount on this game system?

Answer 1

The game system was bought by Andy on sale at $194.70
Original price of the game system bought by Andy is $220
Amount of discount Andy got on the game system = (220 - 194.7) dollars
= 25.3 dollar
The question needs the percentage of discount that Andy got while buying the game system.
Then
The percentage of discount andy got on the game system = [(25.3/220) * 100]
= 11.5
Then Andy got 11.5% discount while buying the game system.
