The reduced price at 10% off is now $72.00 and the reduced price at 50% off is $40.00.
The statement of Heather's friend is therefore partly wrong.

cost price =$80
Percentage for 10%=$80*10/100=$8,that means $80-$8=$72
Percentage for 20%=$80*20/100=$16,that means $80-$16=$64
Percentage for 30%=$80*30/100=$24,that means $80-$24=$54
Percentage for 40%=$80*40/100=$32,that means $80-$32=$48
Percentage for 50%=$80*50/100=$40,that means $80-$40=$40
Now u may understood the percentage
