Answer: 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price of chocolate = $48
Price taken off for Tom = $12
i.e $12 out of $48 means Tom bought the chocolate $32
Hence, percent discount = (Price taken off/Original price) x 100%
= (12/48) x 100%
= 0.25 x 100%
= 25%
Thus, the percentage discount on the chocolate is 25%
