How to Calculate a Discount
Calculating a discount is a great way to ensure you are getting a good deal. To find the sale price, you simply calculate the discount amount and subtract it from the original ticket price.
Step-by-Step Calculation
- Convert the discount percentage to a decimal (e.g., 20% = 0.20).
- Multiply the original price by this decimal to find the savings amount.
- Subtract the savings amount from the original price to get the final sale price.
Discount Formula
Savings = Original Price × (Discount Percentage / 100)
Final Price = Original Price - Savings
