Discount and Sale Price
Sometimes stores have SALES and discount the price of the products they sell. The discount is usually a percentage of the original price. The discount is the amount of money you save and is subtracted from the original price. The sale price is the new price of the item after the discount has been deducted.
For example: Find the discount and sale price for a $460 lawn mower with a discount of 35%
