The original price of a jacket is $68 the sale price is 30% off the original price what is the discount amount off the original price.

The original price of the jacket is given in the question and it is $68.

The percent of discount given on the original price is 30%.

The amount of discount given = (68 * 30/100) dollar

= 20.4 dollar

The discount amount is $20.4

Now after the deduction of the sale percentage, the selling price of the jacket can be easily deduced.
