Given:

A paddleboard is originally priced at $80

The online retailer gives a discount and the paddleboard is now $56

We need to find the percentage amount for the cost of the paddleboard

So, the percentage =


(56)/(80)\cdot100=(7\cdot8)/(10\cdot8)\cdot100=(7)/(10)\cdot100=70\%

So, the online price is 70% of the original price.
