What is the answer to problem 9-96

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

We first have to find the difference between the original price and the price Jamie bought it at.

80 - 65 = 15

So, Jamie got a $15 discount. We are looking for the percentage, not how much she actually saved.

To find that we're going to have to divide the amount she saved, 15, by the original price, 80.

15/80 = 0.1875

0.1875 is the answer in decimal form, which is not what we want. Multiplying it by 100 will convert it into a percent.

0.1875 x 100 = 18.75

So, Jamie got an 18.75% discount.
