## sasogeek 4 years ago The 10" pizza sells for $5.99 at my favorite pizza store. The store claims they have a great deal on the large 14" pizza, which is specially priced at$ 10.57. What is the per cent discount the store is offering?

$\frac{49}{25}=\frac{x}{5.99}$, x should be the normal price of the pizza, should cost \$11.74

It was: 1-(10.57/(5.99*((14/10)^2))) I had a typo, / is just next to * in the numeric keyboard.
