A successive discount is a combination of many discounts. For example, discounting an $800 TV by 10%, leaving us with $720, and then discounting this by 5%, leaving us with $684.Working out:
1st Discount
= 800 x 0.9
=$720
2nd Discount
=$720 x 0.95
=$684
A normal discount of 15% will give us a different answer to this.
