Answer:

Option A and C is correct.

Explanation:

Discount is defined as a reduced price on something being sold or at a price lower than that item is normally sold for.

For a 20% discount,

Given:

Initial prices = $ d

Discounted price = % discount × original/initial cost

= 20/100 × d

= 0.2 × d

Selling price = original cost - discounted price

= d - 0.2d

= 0.8 × d

= 0.8d
