simple - first off "percent" literally means "per onehundred". Your original amount is 100% of the value.
using division, you take the new amount & divide by the original amount - this gives you the percentage that remains, subtract this from 100. Example: Original price is $15.00, new price is $12.00, $12.00 divide by $15.00 = 0.80 or 80%. 100% - 80% = 20% , Your percentage off is 20%.
