    You need to first calculate the amount of lost money, which is 86-60.2=25.8 To find the discount, you need to put this over the initial price, or 86. This equals 0.3, which is 30 percent.

    To work this out, you do:

    original price - sale price = x

    (x : original price) * 100 = percentage%.

    So when you substitute the values in, you get:

    86 - 60.20 = 25.80

    (25.80 : 86) * 100 = 30%

    The answer is 30%.
