Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate the sale price with a percent discount?

Multiply the original price by the discount percentage, then subtract that amount from the original price. For example, a 20% discount on a $100 item: 20% × $100 = $20 saved, so the sale price is $100 − $20 = $80.

How do I calculate the sale price with a fixed discount?

Simply subtract the fixed discount amount from the original price. For example, if an item costs $95 and you have a $20 off coupon, the sale price is $95 − $20 = $75.

How do I find the discount percentage if I know the original and sale price?

Subtract the sale price from the original price to get the amount saved, then divide by the original price and multiply by 100. For example, if the original price is $80 and the sale price is $60, the discount is ($80 − $60) / $80 × 100 = 25%.

What is the difference between percent off and dollar amount off?

A percent off discount scales with the price — a 20% discount saves more on a $500 item than on a $50 item. A fixed dollar amount off always reduces the price by the same dollar figure regardless of the original price.

Can I use this calculator to find the original price if I know the sale price and discount?

Yes. If you know the sale price and the percentage off, the original price can be calculated as: sale price ÷ (1 − discount%). For a $80 sale price with 20% off, the original price is $80 ÷ 0.80 = $100.

How do stacked or multiple discounts work?

Stacked discounts are applied sequentially, not added together. For example, 20% off followed by an additional 10% off a $100 item gives: $100 × 0.80 = $80, then $80 × 0.90 = $72 — not the same as 30% off ($70).

What does 'percent off' mean on a price tag?

'Percent off' means that the listed discount percentage is subtracted from the original price. A tag reading '30% off' on a $50 item means you pay $50 × (1 − 0.30) = $35.

Is tax calculated in the sale price?

This calculator shows the pre-tax discounted price. Sales tax is typically applied after the discount has been deducted, so you would add your local tax rate to the final sale price shown here.
