Price Breakdown
Stores speak in percentages; wallets think in money. This calculator translates between the two: give it a price and a percent off, and it returns the price you will actually pay and the amount you save.
How to use this calculator
- Enter the original price.
- Enter the percent off (for example 25).
- Press calculate to see the sale price and the saving.
Two discounts do not add up
A sign saying "30% off, plus an extra 10% off" does not mean 40% off. The second percentage applies to the already reduced price, giving 37% off in total. When in doubt, chain the discounts here one at a time and compare the final price with a single-discount offer.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find percent off from two prices?
Subtract the sale price from the original, divide by the original, and multiply by 100. That is the true percent off, whatever the sign claimed.
What is 20% off a price, quickly?
Find 10% (move the decimal one place) and double it. Subtract from the price. The calculator confirms it exactly.
Do coupons apply before or after tax?
Usually the discount reduces the price first and tax is charged on the reduced amount, but local rules vary. Check the receipt if the difference matters.
