Answer:

33.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume a price is 100 dollars. It will be easier to calculate.

First, a mark down of 25%. That is:

25/100 = 0.25

0.25 * 100 = 25

Mark Down, so 100 - 25 = 75 dollars

It is worth 75 dollars now.

Next, 55% off, so

55/100 = 0.55

0.55 * 75 = 41.25

So, it is worth now 75 - 41.25 = 33.75 dollars

So, you end up paying 33.75 dollars off the original price of 100 dollars. That is 33.75% off original
