You see a shirt you really like but it costs $50.00 and you cannot afford it right now. You see one on eBay that is exactly the same for $19.99 plus $1.50 in shipping. What percent are you saving off of the original in-store price if you buy the shirt on eBay? Please show your work. PLEASE HELP ASAP

Total cost of the shirt from

eBay is the price of the shirt plus the shipping:

19.99 + 1.50 = $21.49

Find the cost difference:

50 - 21.49 = $28.51

Divide the cost difference by original price:

28.51/50 = 0.5702

Multiply by 100 to get percent:

0.5702 x 100 = 57.02%

Answer: 57.02% ( you can probably round the answer to 57%)
