Question 1194747
<font color=black size=3>
There are two methods we could use to find the sale price and discount.


Method 1:
Discount = 25% of 530 = 0.25*530 = 132.50
You save $132.50
sale price = original - discount = 530-132.50 = 397.50


Method 2:
You save 25%, so you pay the remaining 75%
sale price = 75% of 530 = 0.75*530 = 397.50
discount = originalPrice - salePrice = 530-397.50 = 132.50


When it comes to computing the sale price only, I recommend the second option. 
The second option is handy if you chain together multiple discounts. 
Also, it's useful to determine the price after taxes and other fees.
