To find out whose clothes had the bigger percentage discount, we need to calculate the percentage discount for each of them.
For Kayleigh:
Discounted price = 50 - 5 = 45
Percentage discount = (5/50) * 100% = 10%
For Rachael:
Discounted price = 20 - 3 = 17
Percentage discount = (3/20) * 100% = 15%
Therefore, Rachael's clothes had the bigger percentage discount with a discount of 15% compared to Kayleigh's discount of 10%.
For Kayleigh:
Discounted price = 50 - 5 = 45
Percentage discount = (5/50) * 100% = 10%
For Rachael:
Discounted price = 20 - 3 = 17
Percentage discount = (3/20) * 100% = 15%
Therefore, Rachael's clothes had the bigger percentage discount with a discount of 15% compared to Kayleigh's discount of 10%.
