he price of a used motorbike is 4975. Danny, a buys the motorbike for 3781. What is the discount percent given?

Sagot :

well, we know the discount is 4975 - 3781 = 1194.

if we take 4975 to be the 100%, what is 1194 off of it in percentage?

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 4975 & 100\\ 1194& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{4975}{1194}~~=~~\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{26}{6}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 26x = 600\implies x=\cfrac{600}{26}\implies x\approx 23.08[/tex]

Answer:

0.76
