Suppose you have a L.L. Bean coupon of $165.79 and you want to know the final or sale price if the discount is 15 percent.

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

Sale Price = Original Price - Amount Saved. So,

Sale Price = 165.79 - 24.8685

Sale Price = $140.92 (answer).

This means the cost of the item to you is $140.92.

You will pay $140.92 for a item with original price of $165.79 when discounted 15%.

24.87 / 165.79 = Discount in Percent /100
100 x 24.87 / 165.79 = Discount in Percent
