The original price of a computer games is 45$. The price is marked down by 18$. What percent of the original price is the markdown?

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we say the price of an object is marked down, it means the price of the object was reduced or decreased from the initial or original price.

In the above question:

The original price of a computer game = $45

The price is marked down or decreased by $18

We are asked to find the percent of the original price that is marked down.

This is calculated as:

(The price that the original price is marked down by : Original price) * 100

= ($18 : $45) * 100

= 40%

Therefore, the percent of the original price that is marked down is 40%.
