A computer is normally $899 but is discounted to $799.
Question: What percent of the original price does Shawn pay?
=> 799 dollars is the discounted price
=> 899 dollars is the original price
=> 899 – 799 = 100 dollars – the discount price that was deducted to the original price.
Solution
=> 100 / 899 = 0.11
=> 0.11 * 100% = 11%
Thus, the computer has a discount of 11%.
