How it works

sale price = price × (1 − % ÷ 100)

A discount is a percentage of the original price, so 25% off $80 is $80 × 25 ÷ 100 = $20, and you pay $60. Two discounts in a row don’t simply add up: 20% off and then another 10% off is 28% off in total, not 30%, because the second discount comes off the already reduced price.

  1. Find the discount $80.00 × 25 ÷ 100 = $20.00
  2. Take it off the price $80.00 − $20.00 = $60.00
