Question

A bicycle marked at $1,500$ is sold for $1,350$. What is the percentage of discount?

Answer 1

Marked Price $=$ $1500$, Selling Price $=$ $1350$
Amount of discount $=$ Marked Price $-$ Selling Price
$=1500-1350$
$=$ $150$
Discount for $1500=$ $150$
Discount for $100=\frac{150}{1500}\times 100$
Percentage of discount $=10$%
