Ok,

Since we have that the price of the pants is $2995 and that represents the 100%.

In order to determine the total value since we get a 10% discount, we do as follows:


2995\to100\text{ \& x}\to10

We determine the 10%, multiplying the percentage we want to know (10%) times the total ammount of money the pants cost ($2995) and then divide by the total percentage (100%):


x=(2995\cdot10)/(100)\Rightarrow x=299.5

x represents our 10% and so we extract x from the total:


T=2995-299.5\Rightarrow T=2695.5

Therefore the total price to pay is $2695.5
