Macy’s was offering a Memorial Day sale. The price of a shirt is now $21.25. The original price was $25. What is the percent of change from the original to the sale price?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The original price drops by 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

What was the drop in price?  To answer that, subtract $21.25 from $25, which results in $3.75.

Now compare $3.75 to the original price, $25, through division, as follows:

   $3.75

-------------- * 100% = 15%

     $25

The original price drops by 15%.
