    40%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Original price: $25

    Discounted price: $15

    Amount of discount: $25 - $15 = $10

    The boots sold for $10 less than the original price.

    To find the percent discount, we need to find what percent of $25 is $10.

    percent = part/whole * 100%

    percent = 10/25 * 100%

    percent = 0.4 * 100%

    percent = 40%
