OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

50 cents, is 1/8 of the original, can you right 1/8 in percentage?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.5% isn't correct though because the price didn't drop 50% Maybe it's that .5 instead of .50

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

12.5%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Difference in price is 50 cents, written as .50 Original price = 4.00 so it will be .50/4.00 = .125 so 12.5%
