Answer: To find the discount, simply multiply the original selling price by the %discount:

ie: 39 x 33/100= $12.87

So, the discount is $12.87.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the sale price, simply minus the discount from the original selling price:

ie: 39- 12. 87= 26.13

So, the sale price is $26.13
