Answer: $13.75

Explanation:

A discount of 45% off = 100% - 45% = 55% of original price

Multiply the percentage by the regular price.

0.55 * 25 = 13.75

Part A - This question is saying that an item is priced at $25, without any discounts or usage of coupons, but David bought the item with a discount of 45%.

Part B - 45% of 25 is 11.25, meaning that the price David bought the item at was $11.25. Hope that helps!
