It is given in the question that
Tracey paid $145 for an item that was originally priced at $460.
And we have to find what percent of the original price did Tracey pay.
So we have to find the percentage of 145 out of 460, and for that, we have to divide 145 by 460 and multiply the result by 100. THat is
[tex]\frac{145}{460}*100=31.52 percentage[/tex]
And that's the required answer .
