Edmond is shopping online and finds a great deal on yo-yos. Edmond pays $0.22 for a yo-yo that originally sold for $0.88. What percentage is the discount?

Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

The amount of the discount is $0.88 - $0.22 = $<<0.88-0.22=0.66>>0.66.

The percentage discount is (0.66 / 0.88) * 100% = 0.75 * 100% = 75%. Answer: \boxed{75\%}.
