Answer:
There are several ways of solving this problem, and also any problem similar to this. We can start calculating what the 1/4 of 5 is.
To calculate that, we only need to multiply 5 by the fraction:
[tex]5*\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] = 1.25
And now, we know that from the 5 dollars, 1.25 is discounted, so we now substract 1.25 dollars to the ffive it costed initially.:
5 - 1.25 = 3.75 dollars
