🧮 Three formulas

One unknown, three ways.

Mode 1: % Off
Sale = Original × (1 − %/100)

$120 at 35% off → $120 × 0.65 = $78

Mode 2: Sale Price → %
% = ((Orig − Sale) / Orig) × 100

$120 → $78 → ((120−78)/120) × 100 = 35%

Mode 3: Find Original
Orig = Sale / (1 − %/100)

Paid $78 at 35% off → $78 / 0.65 = $120

❓ FAQ

Common questions.

How do I calculate a percentage discount?
Sale price = Original price × (1 − discount% / 100). For example, $120 at 35% off: 120 × (1 − 0.35) = 120 × 0.65 = $78. You save $42.
How do I find the discount percentage from two prices?
Discount % = ((Original − Sale) / Original) × 100. For example, $120 original, $78 sale: ((120 − 78) / 120) × 100 = 35%. Use "Sale Price" mode in the calculator.
How do I find the original price from a discounted price?
Original price = Sale price / (1 − discount% / 100). If you paid $78 and there was a 35% discount: 78 / 0.65 = $120. Use "Original" mode in the calculator.
What is the bulk savings feature?
The bulk savings row shows the total cost and total savings if you buy 1, 2, or 3 units at the same discounted price. Useful for comparing multi-unit purchases.
Does this calculator handle tiered or stacked discounts?
This calculator handles a single discount. For stacked discounts (e.g., 20% off then an extra 10% off), apply the first discount to get a new price, then apply the second discount to that result.
