Ms. smith saved $0.26 from the purchase

What is 5% discount?

5% discount means that 5% of the list price of $5.20 would be given off the price such that Ms Smith only pays 95% of the price of the items bought from Starbucks , bearing in mind that the initial price of $5.20 is 100% price amount, hence, by deducting a discount of 5%, we are left with a discounted price of 95%

Discounted price=(100%-discount rate)*initial price

discount rate=5%

initial price=$5.20

discounted price=(100%-5%)*$5.20

discounted price=95%*$5.20

discounted price=$4.94

savings=initial price-discounted price

savings=$5.20-$4.94

savings=$0.26
