Answer:

9% discount (i think im not the best at percentages sorry)

Explanation:

since we already know how much we are getting off of the original price, we dont have to subtract anything

so you would divide this price, 130, from 1400

130/1400= 0.0928

then you would have to muliply this number by 100

0.0928 x 100= 9.28

and you would just round to the nearest number which is 9

i hope this is right sorry if it isnt
