The formula for discount calculations is:
Price x .Percentage = discount
Then you subtract the discount from the price.
(Don't forget the decimal).
Example:
Let's say you want to buy a pair of trousers for £40 and you are given a 30% discount.
£40 x .30 = £12 discount
£40 - £12 = £28
You would pay £28 after the 30% discount on a £40 pair of trousers.

How do you find percent of disscount?
Discount divided by original price gives you a decimal which you then multiply by 100. This equals percent of discount Eg: $15 discount, $80 original price 15 / 80 = 0.1875 x 100 = 18.75%
How would you find the price of a discounted item if you only know the percent of the discount?
You could not. You need to know the pre-discount price as well.
