How do you figure the how much percent was taken off the original price if you only have the original price and the sale price?
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.
How do you find a percentage off if you have the original price and sale price?
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 %
How do you take the percentage of 17 off of the price 189.45?

$61.18. Take $76.42 times 0.80 (80%). This is the amount you will pay when you take 20% off the price.
How do you take 30 percent off of something?
To take 30 percent off of a price, first convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100, which gives you 0.30. Then, multiply the original price by this decimal to find the discount amount. Subtract the discount from the original price to get the final price after the discount. For example, for an item costing $100, a 30 percent discount would reduce the price by $30, resulting in a final price of $70.
