First the discount is taken off the sale price, then the tax is applied.
20% off from $40 would be 0.20*40 = $8
So, $40 - 8= $32
Next the tax is applied.
8% of $32 = 0.08(32) = $2.56
Together, the sale price of $32 and the tax of $2.56 adds up to a total sale of $34.56
15 percent of 12.95 would be 1.9425 or just 1.94 if you round it if you are buying something, your new price would be 11.01
'6 percent tax' can mean 2 things, depending whether or not the tax is inclusive. If it is not inclusive it means that you owe a further 6% of whatever your buying/receiving. For example if you're buying something for £100 and VAT (at 6%) is not included you would owe £6 to the tax man. If it is inclusive it means that 6% of whatever your buying/receiving. If you are buying something for £50 and VAT is included (at 6%) 6% would be paid to the tax man for you.
You can use it to figure out many things. One example would be to figure out how much a sale item will save you. Say your item is $25 but is on sale for 5 percent off. take 25 and minus 5 then hit the percent key. Another example would be for sales tax. If your tax is 5 percent and your buying something for $25 take the 25 and times it by 5 and hit the percent key. That will tell you how much to add to the $25

Oh, dude, math time! So, like, 60 percent of 2500 is 1500. You just gotta multiply 2500 by 0.60, easy peasy. So, like, if you ever need to know how much that is for, like, I dunno, buying 60% off on a sale or something, now you know!
