    Remember that percent means parts out of 100

    x/100

    discount is the decrease

    so we divide the decrease by the original total and get

    100/5775=0.0173

    convert to fraction

    0.0173/1

    make bottom number 100

    multiply by 100/100

    1.73/100=1.73%

    round

    2%
