Two ways: Take the percent of the number and subtract it from the number or multiply the number by 100 minus the percent.
Example: 25 percent off 24 dollars.
24 x 0.25 = 6
24 - 6 = 18
or
24 x 0.75 = 18
divide by 4, then multiply your new number by three
You take the original value times 0.25. That number is 25% of the original, so you take the original number minus that number.
The quickest way is to multiply the original number by 0.9
work out 10% and then half it, add the two together and take it away from the first number
5 percent i got it off of the worlds best math book so trust me
It will take $12.80 off so they will be $25.20. :P MATH
Multipiy that number by 30 and divide by 100
Take a number and multiply it by .75
divide by 4, then multiply your new number by three
You take the original value times 0.25. That number is 25% of the original, so you take the original number minus that number.
Oh, dude, math time! So, if 20 is 50% of a number, that means the number is double 20, which is 40. It's like when you buy one, get one free - except in this case, you only get half off. Math can be fun, right?

The math is (109/100)*20 = $21.8
The fastest way to take 20 percent off a number is to multiply the original number by 0.8 20% of 30 is 6. 30 - 6 = 24 30 x 0.8 = 24
If you take 30 percent off of 239, the answer would be 167.30. It would be 71.70 off.
Multiply the number by 0.1.
