Find the discount.

regular price = $8; discount rate = 75%

A.

$0.60

B.

$0.75

C.

$2

D.

$6

The answer is C $2 because 25% of $8 is $2. $2 X 3 = 75% or $6. 2% is left so $2 is the answer.

First convert 75% to a number by moving the decimal place to the left two places. That gives us. 75. Now to figure out what 75% of $8 is we multiply. 75 by 8. You should end up with $6. Now you subtract the discounted price from the original and it gives you $8-$6=$2.
