Given:
             discount for sweater: 25%
             price of a sweater: 4,999 $

Asked: 
               How much will you pay for a sweater that is regularly 4, 999 $?

Solution:
               100 % - 25% = 75%
 
    4, 999$ x 75%
    4, 999$ x 0.75 = 3, 749.25 $
Example 1:
Sweater = $49.99
Discount = 25%
What's left is 75% of the original price.
49.99 x 0.75 = $37.49 (37.4925)
Example 2:
Sweater = $49.99
Discount = 25%
25% = 1/4
What's left is 3/4 of the original price.
49.99 / 4 = 12.4975
12.4975 x 3= $37.49 (37.4925)
