If the offer was changed to "Buy 3, Get 2 Free," at $8.99 each, what would be the new markdown percent?

Question

Round to the nearest tenth and do not enter the percent symbol in your answer.

if the price is p, then the price for all 5 items is 3p.

So, each costs 3/5 p, or 60% of the original price, regardless of what it was.
