What is a Discount?
A discount is a reduction in the original price of a product or service. Businesses offer discounts to attract customers and increase sales.
A discount lowers the selling price from the original price.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a discount?
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage, then divide by 100. Subtract the result from the original price to get the final price.
How do I calculate the original price from a discounted price?
Original Price = Discounted Price / (1 − Discount%/100). For example, if you paid $85 after a 15% discount: $85 / 0.85 = $100.
Can I stack multiple discounts?
Yes, but they are applied sequentially, not added. A 20% + 10% discount on $100: first $100 × 0.80 = $80, then $80 × 0.90 = $72. Total discount is 28%, not 30%.
Do discounts increase sales?
Yes, discounts often encourage customers to buy faster.
