Answer key: Discount worksheet

  1. 1. Percent off: 21.88%

    1. Subtract the sale price from the original price to get the savings

      $80.00−$62.50=$17.50
    2. Divide the savings by the original price to see what share you saved, then multiply by 100 to make it a percent

      $17.50$80.00×100=21.875%
  2. 2. Percent off: 31.43%

    1. Subtract the sale price from the original price to get the savings

      $70.00−$48.00=$22.00
    2. Divide the savings by the original price to see what share you saved, then multiply by 100 to make it a percent

      $22.00$70.00×100=31.428571%
  3. 3. Sale price: $52.56

    1. With 28% off, you still pay the rest of the price. Work out that share as a decimal

      1−28100=0.72
    2. Multiply the original price by that share to get the sale price

      $73.00×0.72=$52.56
    3. Your savings are the original price minus the sale price

      $73.00−$52.56=$20.44
