The method, explained
Savings = original price × discount ÷ 100. Sale price = original price − savings.
A 25% discount on 120 saves 30 and leaves a sale price of 90.
What to keep in mind
The result excludes tax and shipping. Multiple discounts should be applied one after another; two 20% discounts do not equal 40%.
Common questions
Can I use any currency?
Yes. Both price and savings use whichever currency you entered. No currency conversion occurs.
How do I handle two discounts?
Apply the first discount, then use its sale price as the original price for the second discount.
