    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the discount in percentage offered for the price of the shirts.

    The regular price of the shirts was $20

    The price for which the shirt was offered for sale is $17 which also represents the discounted price.

    The discount would be

    20 - 17 = $3

    The percentage discount would be

    The discount / the regular price * 100%.

    Therefore,

    % discount = 3/20 * 100 = 0.15 * 100

    = 15%
