divide 93.75 by 125 = 75%
however, that is not the discount.
it is the difference of the 100 and the discount.
to find the discount, you do 100 - 75 = 25

the discount is 25%

$93.75 = $125 × n

$93.75/$125 = n

n = 0.75 = 75/100 = 75%

The percent discount is how much taken off the total price, so . . .

100% - 75% = percent discount = 25%

 . . . answer is 25% (percent discount)
