Zack has an old car. He wants to sell it for 60% off the current price. The market price is $500. How much money would he receive in exchange for the car if he were able to sell it at that rate? What if he wanted to sell it for 25% more than the market price?

300 and 625

60% of 500 is 300

So if Zack wanted to sell the car 60% of the markets price, it would be 300.

125% of 500 is 625

If Zack wanted to sell the car for 25 more than the price at market, it would be 125%, and 125% of 500 is 625.
