how to work out discounts - Step by Step

To calculate discount it is ease by using the following equations:

• Amount Saved = Orig. Price x Discount % / 100 (a)
•  
• Sale Price = Orig. Price - Amount Saved (b)

Now, let's solve the questions stated above:

1) What is 2 percent off $15? Find the amount of discount.

Suppose you have a Kohls coupon of $15 and you want to know how much you will save for an item if the discount is 2.

Solution:

Replacing the given values in formula (a) we have:

Amount Saved = Original Price x Discount in Percent / 100. So,

Amount Saved = 15 x 2 / 100
Amount Saved = 30 / 100
Amount Saved = $0.3 (answer).

In other words, a 2% discount for a item with original price of $15 is equal to $0.3 (Amount Saved).

Note that to find the amount saved, just multiply it by the percentage and divide by 100.

2) How much to pay for an item of $15 when discounted 2 percent (%)? What is item's sale price?

Suppose you have a L.L. Bean coupon of $15 and you want to know the final or sale price if the discount is 2 percent.

Using the formula (b) and replacing the given values:

Sale Price = Original Price - Amount Saved. So,

Sale Price = 15 - 0.3

Sale Price = $14.7 (answer).

This means the cost of the item to you is $14.7.

You will pay $14.7 for a item with original price of $15 when discounted 2%.

In this example, if you buy an item at $15 with 2% discount, you will pay 15 - 0.3 = $14.7.

3) 0.3 is what percent off $15?

Using the formula (b) and replacing given values:

Amount Saved = Original Price x Discount in Percent /100. So,

0.3 = 15 x Discount in Percent / 100
0.3 / 15 = Discount in Percent /100
100 x 0.3 / 15 = Discount in Percent
30 / 15 = Discount in Percent, or

Discount in Percent = 2 (answer).
