How do I calculate the discounted price?

Multiply the price by (1 − discount/100). For example, $100 −25% = 100 × 0.75 = $75. The saving is $25. The calculator shows both the discounted price and the saving.

How do I calculate the discount percentage?

Divide the saving by the original price and multiply by a hundred. For example, if a $100 product now costs $75, the discount is (100−75)/100 × 100 = 25%.

Are two consecutive discounts the same as their sum?

No. −20% and then −10% is not −30%. After the first the price is $80, and the second discount is calculated from that: 80 × 0.90 = $72, i.e. −28% in total.

Which price is the discount calculated from?

A discount should be based on the previous selling price. Consumer protection requires that the stated reference price is a genuine previous price, not one artificially inflated.

Discounted price

Original price	$100.00
You save	$25.00
Discounted price	$75.00

ℹ️ Always check the starting price — sometimes the "discounted" price is calculated from an inflated price. Stacked discounts (e.g. −20% and then −10%) are not the same as −30%; they add up to less.

This discount calculator tells you the final price after a percentage discount and how much you save in dollars. Enter the original price and the discount percentage to see the saving and the sale price instantly.

How the calculator works and what it’s for▾

How the discount is calculated

The saving is the original price multiplied by the discount percentage, and the sale price is the original price minus that saving.

For example, a 25 percent discount on an 80 dollar item means a 20 dollar saving, so you pay 60 dollars.

What you enter and what you get

You enter the original price in dollars and the discount percentage. The result shows the original price, the saving in dollars and the final discounted price.

This makes it easy to check the promise on a sale tag in a couple of seconds.

Several discounts in a row

Two discounts applied one after another do not reduce the price as much as their combined percentage suggests. For example, 20 percent followed by 10 percent is not the same as 30 percent but less.

This is because the second discount is calculated from the already reduced price.

Tips and pitfalls

Always check the price the discount is based on. Sometimes the original price is inflated before the offer.

Compare the final price with other sellers' normal prices so you do not overpay just because of a tempting discount percentage.
