How Percentage Discounts Work
When you see "15% off," it means you'll receive a 15% reduction on the original price. Here's how the calculation works:
Discount Formula
Discount Amount = Original Price × (Discount Percentage ÷ 100)
Final Price = Original Price - Discount Amount
For example, if an item originally costs $100 and is discounted by 15%, the discount amount would be $15, and the final price would be $85.
Percentage discounts are commonly used in retail, sales promotions, and financial calculations. They provide a clear way to represent reductions in price or value.
Worked Examples
Let's look at a few examples to illustrate how the 15% off calculator works:
Example 1: $50 Item
Original Price: $50
Discount: 15% of $50 = $7.50
Final Price: $50 - $7.50 = $42.50
Example 2: $200 Item
Original Price: $200
Discount: 15% of $200 = $30
Final Price: $200 - $30 = $170
Example 3: $75 Item
Original Price: $75
Discount: 15% of $75 = $11.25
Final Price: $75 - $11.25 = $63.75
| Original Price | Discount Amount | Final Price |

| $50 | $7.50 | $42.50 |
| $100 | $15.00 | $85.00 |
| $200 | $30.00 | $170.00 |
