Answer:
40% discount
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this remember the formula [tex]\frac{discount amount}{original price} = \frac{percent discount}{100}[/tex]
To find the discount amount subtract $36 from $60 which is $24.
[tex]\frac{24}{60} = \frac{x}{100}[/tex] next you have to cross multiply
24*100 = 2400 and 60*x = 60x
Now you have the equation 2400 = 60x
Divide both sides by 60 to isolate the variable
x = 40
