The answer will depend on what information you do have.
The original price was $104.00
To take a percentage of a price, multiply the price by the decimal equivalent of the percentage, which is the percentage divided by 100. 25 percent of 15.00 = 15 x 0.25 = 3.75 To take a percentage off a price, you can either subtract that number from the original price (15.00 - 3.75 = 11.25) or multiply the original price by the decimal equivalent of 100 percent minus the discount. (15 x 0.75 = 11.25)
Oh, what a delightful question! To find the sale price of those lovely shoes, simply multiply the original price ($130.00) by the discount percentage (15%). Then, subtract that amount from the original price to reveal the discounted price. Remember, mistakes are just happy accidents in the world of math!
well there is two ways of answering this...1st waytake the price of the item (lets say $20) and multiply by the decimal equivalent of your percent off.20*.15=3That figured up your discount so to get they price you would pay you simply subtract your discount from the original price to get the sale price.20-3=172nd wayThe other way is to subtract your percent off from 100(since 100% would be full price) to find the percent you would pay.100-15=85then just multiply by the decimal equivalent of your percent that you would pay by the original price to get the sale price.20*.85=17both ways will get you the same result if the values are inserted correctly
To find a 5% discount, divide your principal amount by 100 and multiply it by 5.You are effectively multiplying by 0.05 which is the meaning of 5 percent.This is also equal to a decrease of 1/20th of the total cost.
To find the discount rate, subtract the sales price from the original price to determine the discount amount. Then, divide the discount amount by the original price. Finally, multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage. The formula can be summarized as: Discount Rate (%) = [(Original Price - Sales Price) / Original Price] × 100.
The original price was $104.00
Discount = Original Price - Discounted Price Percentage Discount = 100* Discount / Original Price
Discount = Original Price minus Sale price.
To find the retail price after a 7.5% sales discount on an item priced at $85.99, you first calculate the discount amount by multiplying $85.99 by 0.075, which equals approximately $6.45. Subtracting this discount from the original price gives a final retail price of about $79.54.
You're asking how to calculate the final sale price of a discounted good. The formula is: Original Price - (Original Price * Discount Rate). As an example, let's say a laptop is priced at $499.99 and the store is offering a 10% discount. Our equation would look like: $499.99 - (499.99 x 0.10) = 449.99.
Percentage discount = 100*(1 - sale price/original price)
You need to know the discounted price and either the discount amount or the discount rate. If you know the discount amount: Original Price = Discounted Price + Discount If you know the Discount Rate (percentage discount ): Original Price = 100*Discounted Price / (100 - Discount Rate)
20%
If the discounted price is $35, then you must reverse the process to find the original price. The original price would be 38.99 dollars.
If you have only the sale price you cannot find the original price. You need to know the discount rate.
If the discount is D percent and the sale price is S, then the original price was S*100/(100-D)
