The original price of a scarf is $16. During a store-closing sale, a shopper saved $12 on the scarf. What percentage discount did she receive?

75%off.. she paid 4$ for the scarf. if 16 = 100% (divided by 4 is 25% ) 4×3= 12 which equals 75 %. im sorry for the lengthy explanation im sure there is an easier way to explain i hope u understand the point i was getting at. it is definitely 75% off though
