Omar went shopping for a new video game because of a sale. The price on the tag was $37, but Omar paid $25.90 before tax. Find the percent discount.

Answer 1

To find the percent discount, we need to first calculate the amount of the discount.

Discount = $37 - $25.90
Discount = $11.10

Now we can find the percent discount by dividing the discount by the original price and then multiplying by 100.

Percent Discount = (Discount/Original Price) * 100
Percent Discount = ($11.10/$37) * 100
Percent Discount = 0.3 * 100
Percent Discount = 30%

Therefore, Omar received a 30% discount on the video game.
