First, convert the percentage discount to a decimal. A 20 percent discount is 0.20 in decimal format. Secondly, multiply the decimal discount by the price of the item to determine the savings in dollars. For example, if the original price of the item equals $24, you would multiply 0.2 by $24 to get $4.80.

Thus, a product that normally costs $32 with a 40 percent discount will cost you $19.20, and you saved $12.80. You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 40.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $32 as follows: $32 x . 40 = $12.80 savings.

Thus, a product that normally costs $45 with a 18 percent discount will cost you $36.90, and you saved $8.10. You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 18.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $45 as follows: $45 x . 18 = $8.10 savings.

Thus, a product that normally costs $44 with a 80 percent discount will cost you $8.80, and you saved $35.20. You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 80.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $44 as follows: $44 x . 80 = $35.20 savings.

Calculating percentages The basic formula for calculating a percentage is =part/total. Say you want to reduce a particular amount by 25%, like when you're trying to apply a discount. Here, the formula will be: =Price*1-Discount %. (Think of the “1” as a stand-in for 100%.)

Thus, a product that normally costs $50 with a 20 percent discount will cost you $40.00, and you saved $10.00. You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 20.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $50 as follows: $50 x . 20 = $10.00 savings.

For example, if the original price of the item equals $24, you would multiply 0.2 by $24 to get $4.80. Finally, subtract the value of the dollar discount from the original price to find the price of the item after the discount.
