Lizzy: Barry goes to a shop to buy a shirt he'd been admiring for quite some time. He tells the attendant that it's his birthday so she decides to give him a 15% special discount. The price tag on the shirt says $80. How much is he supposed to pay now, considering the special discount?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:

15% of $80 = (15 / 100) * $80 = $12. The dollar amount of the discount is $12 so he is supposed to pay just $80 - $12 = $68. Final answer: 68.
