Answer:

The discount was 38.04%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Original cost of pair of shoes = $184

Discounted cost of shoes = $114

Difference = 184 - 114

Difference = $70

Discount percent = [tex]\frac{Difference}{Original\ price}*100[/tex]

Discount percent = [tex]\frac{70}{184}*100[/tex]

Discount percent = 0.3804 * 100

Discount percent = 38.04%

Hence,

The discount was 38.04%
