Answer:

The discount was approximately 48%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general forumla to calculate percent change (increase or decrease) is:

[tex]\frac{original-new}{original}[/tex] x 100

In this case, the original price was $28.00, but the new price (after discount) was $14.60.  Putting these values into the formula:

[tex]\frac{28 - 14.60}{28}=\frac{13.4}{28}=.48[/tex] x 100 = 48%.

Answer:

47.8571429

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the answer is same as the one above (48%) but if your an rsm student, the answer is 47.8571429 :)
