How to use this calculator
Type the original price and the percent off, or tap one of the quick buttons (10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 50%, 70%). The calculator shows the final price you'll pay and the exact dollar amount you save.
How percent off works
A percent‑off discount reduces a price by a share of its value. To find the discount in dollars, multiply the price by the percentage written as a decimal (25% = 0.25). Subtract that from the original price to get the sale price.
Worked example
A jacket costs $59.99 and is 25% off. The savings are $59.99 × 0.25 ≈ $15.00, so the final price is about $44.99 before tax. Try your own numbers in the calculator above.
The formula
Savings = Price × (Percent ÷ 100) · Final price = Price − Savings
To work backward from a sale price to the original: Original = Sale price ÷ (1 − Percent ÷ 100).
Frequently asked questions
How do you calculate a percent off?
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage to get the amount saved, then subtract that from the original price. For example, 25% off $60 is $60 × 0.25 = $15 saved, so the final price is $45.
What is 20% off $50?
20% of $50 is $10, so 20% off $50 leaves a final price of $40. Enter any price and percentage above to get the exact numbers instantly.
How do I calculate the original price from a sale price?
Divide the sale price by (1 minus the discount as a decimal). If an item is $45 after 25% off, the original price was $45 ÷ 0.75 = $60.
Does this include sales tax?
No. This shows the discounted price before tax. Sales tax is added afterward on the final price, and the rate depends on your location.
