∙ 13y agoUse the percentage off multiplied by the amount. Subtract the number that you derived by multiplying the base price.
The formula comes as two parts:Original Sale Price * Percentage Off expressed as a decimal.Original Sale Price - Percentage off calculated from the first part.As an example, Let's say you want to purchase a new Playstation 4 for $599.00. The store is offering you a 20% discount on the price.Let's follow our steps:Original Sale Price * Percentage off expressed as a decimal.$599.00 x .20 = $119.80Original Sale Price - Percentage off calculated from the first part$599.00 - $119.80 = $479.20
Take the sale price from the original price. The difference is the discount. Calculate the discount as a percentage of the original price. This is the 'percentage off'. Example: Original price 100 verdibors Sale price 80 verdibors Discount = 100-80=20 verdibors. So percentage off is 20/100 = 20% ----------------------------------------------------- Calculating percentages: To convert fractions to percentages, multiply the top figure of the fraction by 100, then 'cancel down'. e.g. 1/4 ..... 1/4 x 100= 100/4 = 25 %
Call the percentage off ' P '. The original price was (sell-price) divided by (1 - .01P)
Sale price/original price will give you a fraction. The fraction x100 gives you the percentage that the sale price is of the original price.100-(that percentage) gives the percent taken off.

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)
