Answer:(a) 50% (b)5%

Step-by-step explanation:

For a, it's not really difficult because the price of a jacket is 1/2 more than jeans. So it's 50%.

For b, it's similar to no. (a) because the price of the jean is 1/2 less than a jacket. So u need to divide 250 by 500 and u will get 0.5 so if u want to put in % u need to multiply with 10, so u will get 5%.
