Apair of pants with a marked price of $35.00 has a discount of 20%. how much is the discount? can someone me learn to do problems like this ?

When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?

Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.

20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:



so the discount is 7 dollars.

C. because 6÷3=2 so 3 is half of six so 3/6
