You take the percentage and times it by the dollar amount to get the percentage off so .25(decimal form ) x 20 dollars= 5 dollars off you subtract 5 from 20 to see how much your actually paying which is 15:P 20-5=15$$$
25 percent of 20 dollars is 5 dollars.
25 percent OFF 20 dollars is 15 dollars. <- Your answer
Do you understand that 25 percent simply means one fourth? Just DIVIDE BY FOUR.
If you must do the math, 25 percent of x is x times 0.25.
$20.00 -$5.00= $15.00
or
4 X $5.00 =$20.00
1.25 if you divide it :)
