I always use a factor of ten. Assume no matter what the discount is it is ten percent to find a ten percent discount just move the decimal point one space to the left, then take that number and subtract it from the original cost. Then in order to find a different percent discount just multiply the ten percent discount by the percent discount you are looking for, but move the decimal one space to the left again, and subtract that from the original cost. Example: something that costs $45 is on sale for 25% off. A ten percent discount would be $4.50. Multiply that by 2.5 to get$11.50. Then subtract that from the original cost to get $33.50. P.S. often times if you don't need the exact answer it is easier to round you numbers to get rid of the .5 to make the math easier.

If you subtract two from ten you get eight! Easy right
'Percent off' means you calculate the percent, then subtract from the original amount. So 24 percent of 995.00 = 238.80, then subtract from 995.00 to get 756.20
ten percent less than 42.1 = 37.89 To find your answer, multiply 42.1 x .1 = 4.21. This is 10% of 42.1 Now you need to subtract 42.1 - 4.21 = 37.89

75 percent subtract 80 = -5
To work out a percentage reduction, subtract the percentage from the whole - therefore, a ten percent reduction from 1007 is equal to (1 - 10/100) x 1007 = 906.30.

Ten percent of 55 is 5.5.
If you subtract five from ten you are left with five.You can subtract the sugar and add honey for this recipe if you prefer.
Multiply the number by 0.75
13%% of 339 = 0.0013*339 = 0.4407 To subtract 13 %% from 339 = 339 - 0.4407 = 338.5593
