Answer:

18.65%

Explanation:

We know

The regular price of each song is $0.89

0.89 x 15 = $13.35

Using a special discount, you download 15 songs for $10.86

What is the percentage of the discount​?

We Take

13.35 - 10.86 = $2.49

Then we take

2.49 divided by 13.35, time 100 = 18.65%

So, the percent of the discount is 18.65%
