A jacket that regularly costs $25.50 that is on sale for 24% off, will now cost you $19.38. The discount will save you $6.12. You can get this by multiplying the price times the discount percentage (you can change this to a decimal, so it will be 0.24).
The jacket is on sale for 24% off. In other words, it will be worth 76% of its value (100-24=76). Multiplying our original cost by the value preserved gives us our answer: $25.50*0.76=$19.38.
