After sales tax jerome pays 106.25% (100% the pre tax price + 6.25% for tax) on the blu ray discs. We can get the pre tax price of the blu ray discs by dividing by 106.25% or 1.0625 as a decimal.

#

By doing that we get a rough value of 127.29

#

By dividng that by the listed price, 127.29/149.70 we get 0.85. 1-0.85 = 0.15 which means the discount was 15%
