Apair of sunglasses is on sale for $26. the original price of the sunglasses was $40. what percent of the original price is the sale price?

If the glasses were origanum 40, and were on sale for 26,we minus them from eachother to find out how much money was saved. So 40-26= 14, if $14 was saved we put 14 over the original price and times it buy 100 14/40x100= 35% So 35% was saved. 100-35= 65. Therefore 65% of the original price was paid and 35% was saved.

Ithink if ur looking for a ratio it would be 12: 3
