Lonnie wants to buy a new Carolina panthers hat and Lids is having a sale for 15%off. If the hat is normally 25$, how much will Lonnie pay for the hat?

Two ways in which to do this problem:

1) Calculate (100% - 15%). Result: 85%. Convert this to the equivalent decimal fraction. Multiply $25 by this result.

2) Subtract the discount from the regular price: $25 - 0.15 ($25) = ?

Divide this result by the original price ($25). Multiply this result by 100%.
