 FAQ

How accurate is the Percent Off Calculator?

The Percent Off Calculator is highly accurate as it uses a simple mathematical formula: Sale Price = Original Price - (Original Price × Discount Percentage ÷ 100). The results are precise to the decimal places shown on your screen.
Can I calculate multiple discounts with this tool?

This calculator is designed for single discount calculations. For multiple sequential discounts, you would need to use the result of the first calculation as the original price for a second calculation, or look for a compound discount calculator.
Does the Percent Off Calculator work for all currencies?

Yes, the calculator works with any currency since it performs percentage calculations that are currency-independent. Just make sure you're entering values in the same currency for both inputs and interpreting outputs.
Is there a limit to the discount percentage I can enter?

Technically, you can enter any percentage value. However, in practical retail contexts, discounts typically range from 1% to 100%. Values above 100% would result in a negative sale price, which is generally not applicable in standard discount scenarios.
How do I calculate the original price if I only know the sale price and the discount percentage?

While this calculator doesn't directly solve for original price, you can use the formula: Original Price = Sale Price ÷ (1 - Discount Percentage ÷ 100). For example, if an item costs $80 after a 20% discount, the original price would be $80 ÷ (1 - 0.2) = $100.
