Two stores carry a similar stereo for the same original price of $573. One store offers a 16% discount and the second store sells the stereo for $458.40. Which store gives the bigger percent discount? Justify your answer.

I have...no clue how to do this. I tried to do it on my own but it didn't make any sense. Help!!

100 - 16 = 84

0.84 * 573 = $_______

481.32 . . . so 458.40 is a better deal! Is that right?

Hm, are you sure, What I learned the answer is
573-458.4 divided by 573 = 0.2 or 20 %.
20% of 458.40 is 91.68, the second store is cheaper.
