Answer:

Discount = $30, Final price = $90

Explanation:

25% is one quarter. 120/4=30

One quarter of 120 is 30, so - 30 would give discounted price of $90.

Similarly you could think of it like the discounted price is 75% of the original one and do 120x0.75=90 to find 75% of 120.

Hope this helped!
