Percent off calculator FAQ
How is percent off calculated?
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage divided by 100 to get the savings, then subtract from the original price. For example, 25% off $80 saves $20, so you pay $60.
What is the difference between percent off and a discount?
They mean the same thing: percent off is just the discount expressed as a percentage of the original price. This percent off calculator handles both.
Can I use decimal discount percentages?
Yes. Values like 12.5% work fine — enter them exactly as shown on the sale tag.
How do I find the original price if I only know the sale price?
Divide the sale price by (1 − discount ÷ 100). For example, a $60 sale price at 25% off means the original was $60 ÷ 0.75 = $80.
Why is my sale price a fraction of a cent?
Percentages don't always divide evenly. Stores round to the nearest cent; this calculator shows two decimals, matching typical rounding.
