How to Calculate Discount Amount

Formula used:

Discount Amount = Original Price × (Discount Percentage ÷ 100)

Final Price = Original Price - Discount Amount

Example 1:

25% off on a product priced at $120. Find the price after the discount.

Apply the values in the formula:

= 120 × (25 ÷ 100)

= 120 × 0.25

= 30 (Discount Amount)

Final Price = $120 - $30 = $90

Example 2:

45% off a $599 item.

= 599 × (45 ÷ 100)

= 599 × 0.45

= 269.55 (Discount Amount)

Final Price = $599 - $269.55 = $329.45

How to Calculate Discount Percentage

Formula used:

Discount Percentage = (Discount Amount ÷ Original Price) × 100

Example 1:

The original price is $500, and the discount is $120. Find the percentage of discount applied.

Apply the values in the formula:

= (120 ÷ 500) × 100

= 0.24 × 100

= 24%

Example 2:

Original price is $250 and fixed discount is $80.

= (80 ÷ 250) × 100

= 0.32 × 100

= 32%
