Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate multiple discounts?
Apply each discount sequentially. For example, 20% off then 10% off: First discount gives you 80% of original, then 10% off that gives you 72% of original.
What's the difference between percentage points and percent?
Percentage points are absolute differences (5% to 10% is 5 percentage points), while percent is relative (5% to 10% is a 100% increase).
How do I calculate reverse percentages?
If you know the final price after a discount, divide by (1 - discount rate) to find the original price.
