A shopper at a clearance sale is pleased to discover some microscopes on sale for $34 each. The original price tags read $85. What is the discount percentage?

Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

The discount is 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the original price of the Microscope is $85, selling for $34 means he gave a discount of $85 - $34.

The discount equals $51

The percentage discount therefore equals discount price divided by cost price multiply 100%

That is 51/85 * 100% = 0.6 * 100%

The answer = 60%
