Given:
Discount offered = $57
Original price of paint = $100
Let x represent the percentage discount.
Thus, we have:
x% of $100 = $57
Solving further, we have:
[tex]\frac{x}{100}\ast100=57[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{100x}{100}=57 \\ \\ x\text{ = 57\%} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the percentage discount is 57%
ANSWER:
57%
