The amount of tax divided by the percent of tax (expressed as a decimal) will equal the original price.
To find the discount rate, subtract the sales price from the original price to determine the discount amount. Then, divide the discount amount by the original price. Finally, multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage. The formula can be summarized as: Discount Rate (%) = [(Original Price - Sales Price) / Original Price] × 100.
