Explanation-:

Method -:

Find the percent of the discounted price

and use it to find the discounted price.

______________________________

Given,

The original price or 100 % of the toy

car -: $50

The discount is 10%

So ,

We subtract 10 % from 100%

100% - 10% =90%

We get ,

90%

By discounting 10 % in original price -:

90% of the original price

90% of $50 = the price which cost after

discounting.

90% x $50

= $ 45

The price after discounting = $ 45
