Question

Jennifer buys a desk on sale for $478.60. If the regular price was $684.00, what is the percentage of discount?

Answer 1

30%

Explanation:

Find the percent discount by dividing the change in the price by the original price:

(684 - 478.6) / 684

205.4 / 684

= 0.3

So, the percent discount was approximately 30%
