The skirts have been reduced to 20% of their original price.

You are looking for the percentage of the original price that the new price is. This means that you are looking for what percentage of $15 that $3 is:

= New price / Original price x 100%

= 3 / 15 x 100%

= 20%

The skirts have therefore been reduced to 20% of their original price.
