the original price of a jacket is $68. The sale price is 30% off the original price. what is the amount off the original price?

The original price of the jacket is given in the question and it is $68.

The percent of discount given on the original price is 30%.

Then

The amount of discount given = (68 * 30/100) dollar

                                                = 20.4 dollar

The discount amount is $20.4

Now after the deduction of the sale percentage, the selling price of the jacket can be easily deduced.

Then

Selling price of the jacket = (68 - 20.4) dollars

                                        = 47.6 dollars
