Let \"+C+\" = cost before discount
\n" ); document.write( "\"+100+=+%28+1+-+.2+%29%2AC+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+100+=+.8C+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+C+=+125+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(a)
\n" ); document.write( "\"+125+-+100+=+25+\"
\n" ); document.write( "25 is the savings
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(b)
\n" ); document.write( "\"+25%2F4+=+6.25+\"
\n" ); document.write( "6.25 is the average savings\r
