Answer: "The percentage used to discount the price of something for sale."

For example: If the percent discount of a product/service is 15% or (15 percent), then it would be calculated as follows:

Price: 50$

Discount: 15% (to convert to decimal, divide 15 by 100 = .15)

Discounted Price: 50 - (50 * .15) = 50 - 7.5 = 42.50 <--this is the discounted price or the lower price the customer would pay for the product/service.
