Mark got a 30% discount on a movie ticket. When the price of the movie ticket increased by 50%, the amount of discount in dollars reminded the same. What is the percent discount that he received on the new ticket price?

• let the price of the ticket be 100 initially so after discount, the price becomes 70 $ that is we get 30 $ as discount .
  now the price of the ticket increases by 50% then the price of the ticket is 150$.
  here dollar amount of discount remains same so, we get percentage discount on new ticket by
  (30/150)*100=20%

• 20%
  If a price of a ticket=x, discount Mark got =0.3x
  New price of ticket=(150/100)*x=1.5x and discount is same=0.3x
  % discount received on new price=0.3x*100/1.5x =20
