Discount Calculator by TheCalcTools

How the Discount Calculator works

Enter the original price and the discount percentage.

If a second coupon applies after the first, add it as an extra discount.

Successive discounts multiply, so two discounts never add up to their plain sum.

The formula

Sale price = price × (1 − discount)Two discounts: price × (1 − d₁) × (1 − d₂)

Worked example

Using the default values shown in the calculator:

Original price$120
Discount25 %
Extra discount (optional)0 %
  1. Price after 25% off = $120 × 0.75 = $90.00.
  2. You save $30.00 (25.00% in total).

Result:

Price you pay$90.00
You save$30.00
Total discount25.00%

Frequently asked questions

Why is 20% off plus 10% off not 30% off?

The second discount applies to the already reduced price, so the combined result is 28%.

How do I find the original price from a sale price?

Divide the sale price by (1 − discount). For $75 after 25% off: 75 ÷ 0.75 = $100.
