Subtract the sale price from the original price and get the difference of the two. Take the difference and then divide it by the original price to get a decimal. Multiply the decimal by 100 to get percent (discount). Example: Original price $20, sale price $15. 20-15= 5 5/20= 0.25 0.25x100= 25%
To check your work, take the original price and multiply it by the discount. If the result is the same as the difference between the original price and the sale price, it is correct. Example: $20x 0.25 (25%percent)= $5 $20-$5=$15 (sale price). Hope this helps
The discounted price will be = original price x (100 - %discount) / 100
Discount = Original Price - Discounted Price Percentage Discount = 100* Discount / Original Price
Discount = Original Price minus Sale price.
discount price = price / 2
Percentage discount = 100*(1 - sale price/original price)
You need to know the discounted price and either the discount amount or the discount rate. If you know the discount amount: Original Price = Discounted Price + Discount If you know the Discount Rate (percentage discount ): Original Price = 100*Discounted Price / (100 - Discount Rate)
If the discounted price is $35, then you must reverse the process to find the original price. The original price would be 38.99 dollars.
If you have only the sale price you cannot find the original price. You need to know the discount rate.
If the discount is D percent and the sale price is S, then the original price was S*100/(100-D)
The original price was $104.00
The answer will depend on what information you do have.
Original Price = Discounted price*100/(100-discount rate) = 3209*100/(100-37) = 3209*100/63 = 5093.65
