The percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.

What is the percentage?

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

Given that:-

  • Price of the item before tax and discount = $17
  • After discount and before tax price is = $15.64

The percentage of the discount will be calculated as:-

Percentage discount = ( 17 - 16.64 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount= ( 1.36 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount = 0.08 x 100 = 8%

Therefore the percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.
