Question

A camera usually sells for $68. Because it was slightly damaged, it sold for $59.90.

What was the rate of discount to the nearest percent?

Answer 1

I think it’s 14% if not it’s 13%

Answer 2

11.91%

Explanation:

$68 - $59.90 = $8.10

To calculate the rate of discount, we divide the discount by the original price and multiply by 100 to get the percentage:

($8.10 / $68) * 100 ≈ 11.91%
