You can do this one of two ways:
final cost = original cost - discount
final cost = $45 - ($45)(25%)
final cost = $45 - ($45)(0.25)
final cost = $45 - $11.25
final cost = $33.75 (plus applicable sales tax)
or
final cost = original cost (100% - discount)
final cost = $45 (100% - 25%)
final cost = $45(75%)
final cost = $45(0.75)
final cost = $33.75 (plus applicable sales tax)
Best of luck!

25% is 1/4.
You'll save $11.25
Final price will be $33.75
Or you can reallize that the new amount is 75% of the original.
0.75 * 45 = $33.75
Same answer either way.
