Answer:

There was 60% discount on the cow.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Cost of cow = $25
  • Latest price = $15

Discount can be calculated by dividing the latest price by the original price and multiplying by 100.

Thus,

percentage discount = 15/25 × 100

                                   = 0.6 × 100

                                    = 60%

Thus, there was 60% discount on the cow.
