Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

The dollar amount of the discount is $32.00 - $25.60 = $6.40

Now we need to find what percent of $32.00 is $6.40.

To find what percent a part is from a whole, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100%.

percent = part/whole * 100%

part = $6.40

whole = $32.00

percent = $6.40/$32.00 * 100%

percent = 20%
