Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate a discount percentage?
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage and divide by 100. Then subtract this amount from the original price. Formula: Final Price = Original Price × (1 − Discount% ÷ 100).
What is 20% off $50?
20% off $50 equals $40. The discount is $10 ($50 × 0.20), so you pay $50 − $10 = $40.
How do I apply multiple discounts?
Apply discounts sequentially, not together. Example: 20% off then another 20% off is 36% total, not 40%. Calculate the first discount, then apply the second to the new price.
Does this calculator include tax?
It shows the discounted price only. Tax applies to the final discounted price. Multiply the final price by (1 + tax rate) to get the total with tax.
