To determine what percent discount Shree received on his purchase, let's follow these steps:
1. Determine the amount of discount:
- The retail price of the speaker is [tex]$605.
- Shree paid $[/tex]425 for the speaker.
- The amount of discount can be found by subtracting the sale price from the retail price:
[tex]\[
\text{Discount Amount} = 605 - 425 = 180
\][/tex]
2. Calculate the percent discount:
- Percent discount is calculated by taking the discount amount, dividing it by the retail price, and then multiplying by 100 to convert to a percentage:
[tex]\[
\text{Percent Discount} = \left( \frac{180}{605} \right) \times 100
\][/tex]
- Solving this, we get:
[tex]\[
\text{Percent Discount} \approx 29.75\%
\][/tex]
Therefore, Shree received a discount of [tex]$180, or approximately 29.75%.
So the correct options are:
- Discount amount: $[/tex]180.00
- Percent discount: 29.75%
The correct answer is c. 29.75%.
