The education, savings and number of nuts are extraneous (extra) information that is of no use. If the original price is .01 per nut, I assume that the answer is also "per nut." You can solve the problem in one of two ways.
50% = .5 = 1/2
You can either multiply the original cost per nut by .5 or 1/2 or divide it by 2.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
