How Discounts Work

A discount is a reduction in the price of a product or service. When you get a 15% discount, you're paying 85% of the original price. The formula for calculating the discount amount is:

Discount Amount = Original Price × (Discount Percentage ÷ 100) Final Price = Original Price - Discount Amount

For example, if an item costs $100 and you get a 15% discount:

Discount Amount = $100 × (15 ÷ 100) = $15 Final Price = $100 - $15 = $85

This means you save $15 and pay only $85 for the item.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Shopping

You're buying a laptop that originally costs $1,200. You find a coupon for a 15% discount.

Discount Amount = $1,200 × 0.15 = $180 Final Price = $1,200 - $180 = $1,020

With the discount, you save $180 and pay only $1,020 for the laptop.

Example 2: Budgeting

You have a monthly subscription that costs $50. You find a promotion offering a 15% discount.

Discount Amount = $50 × 0.15 = $7.50 Final Price = $50 - $7.50 = $42.50

With the discount, you save $7.50 each month on your subscription.
