    Answer:33.75%

    Explanation:

    Let's assume the price without discount is $100.

    Now from the information given, we have $100-0.25*$100 = 0.75*$100

    Which is 0.75 * $100 = $75 is the price after the first discount.

    0.75 - 0.55*$75 = 0.45*$75

    Now 0.45*75 = 33.75% which is the percentage of the original price.
