Calculator Formula

The discount amount and final price are calculated using the following formulas:

\( \text{Discount Amount} = \left( \frac{\text{Original Price} \times \text{Discount Percentage}}{100} \right) \)

\( \text{Final Price} = \text{Original Price} – \text{Discount Amount} \)

These formulas provide a clear calculation of the savings and the cost you will pay after the discount.

Usage Examples

Example 1

Situation: The original price of an item is $500, and the discount percentage is 20%.

  • Original Price: $500
  • Discount Percentage: 20%

Calculation:

\( \text{Discount Amount} = \left( \frac{500 \times 20}{100} \right) = 100 \)

\( \text{Final Price} = 500 – 100 = 400 \)

Explanation: This means you save $100, and the final price you will pay for the item is $400.

Example 2

Situation: The original price of an item is $250, and the discount percentage is 15%.

  • Original Price: $250
  • Discount Percentage: 15%

Calculation:

\( \text{Discount Amount} = \left( \frac{250 \times 15}{100} \right) = 37.50 \)

\( \text{Final Price} = 250 – 37.50 = 212.50 \)

Explanation: In this scenario, you save $37.50, and the final price you will pay for the item is $212.50.
