One way to do it:
The discount was $1.50. As a fraction of the original price, 1.50/5.00 = 30%.
Another way to do it:
The present price as a fraction of the original price is 3.50/5.00 = 70%, so the
missing 30% was knocked off by the discount.

425 It is 75 more than 350 and 75 less than 500. To find the halfway point, add the two numbers and divide by 2.
Let that something be x: 150+x = 500 x = 500-150 x = 350
It is 500.
15070% off of 500= 70% discount applied to 500= 500 - (70% * 500)= 500 - (0.70 * 500)= 500 - 350= 150
