**Understanding Proportions: Solving for Discounts**A TV is on sale for 30% off. The original price is $400. Place the amounts to create a proportion to solve for the amount of discount.**Proportion Setup:**1. **30% (part)** - This box represents the part or percentage of the total that you are calculating for, in this case, the discount.2. **100% (whole)** - This box stands for the total or original value, which in this scenario is associated with the original price of the TV.Each percentage has associated dashed-line boxes where values will be placed, connected by a dotted line indicating the creation of a proportion. To find the discount amount, determine what value represents 30% when 100% is $400.
