The **discount **will be equal to 20%.
What is the percentage?
The **percentage **is defined as representing any number with respect to 100. It is denoted by the sign %. The percentage stands for "out of 100." Imagine any measurement or object being **divided **into 100 equal bits.
Given that Tomas wants to buy a new baseball bat. The one he likes costs $130, but it is on **sale **for $104.
The **discount percentage **will be calculated as:-
( $130 - $104) = $26
( 26 / 130) x 100 = ( 2600 / 130 ) = 20%
Therefore, the **discount **will be equal to 20%.

Tomas will receive a 20% discount on the baseball bat. The discount amount is $26, calculated from the original price of $130. This percentage is determined by dividing the discount amount by the original price and multiplying by 100.
