    The correct answer is 75 %.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's start by analyzing the information we have:

    We know that the original price of the scarf was $ 16, but at the time of purchase, only $ 12 were paid for it.

    What we want to find out now is what was the percentage of discount that was applied on the total price of the scarf.

    One of the ways to find out this percentage would be by dividing the price paid by the scarf, by the original total price.

    Then it would be as follows:

    12/16 = 0.75

    This leads us to the conclusion that the percentage discount that was made for the scarf is 75%.

    To answer this question you need to find the percentage 12 is of 16. To do this you would divide 12 by 16 to get 0.75, then multiply it by 100 to get 75%.
