Most of the same or equivalent steps as in https://www.algebra.com/algebra/homework/Finance/Finance.faq.question.1187592.html, but the question here is different.

Original Price, 6500 Php
Discounted Price, 4890.6 Php

5% discount means that the price paid was 1 - 5% = 95%, or .95
Likewise, 10% discount means that the price paid was 1 - 10% = 90%, or .9
And, 12% discount means that the price paid was 1 - 12% = 88%, or .88
