Designer's swimsuit is originally priced at 85 dollars.
NOw, it applied a discount which is 25/60. First, let's find out how much the discount rate.
=> 25 / 60 = 0.42 * 100 = 42% is the discount.
=> 85 dollars * 0.42 = 35.7 is the discount.
=> 85 dollars - <span>35.7 dollars = 49.3 dollars is now the price.</span>
When you are looking for a fraction, it is best to convert this into a percentage, which in this case, is 80%. Following on from this, you will have to round the number up, which in this case, will be to 200- however, depending on the number, this could be different. From this, you then have to find 80% of 200. From this, you then have to divide 200 by 10, giving you 20, and then multiply this by 8, to get 160, and this is a good estimate for 4/5 of 192. Hope this helps you <span />
