How to work it out

  1. Work out the discount: 60% of 200 = 0.6 × 200 = 120
  2. Take it off the price: 200 − 120 = 80
  3. Check: Add the saving back: 80 + 120 = 200.

Another method. In one step: you pay 40% of the price, so 0.4 × 200 = 80. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =200*(1-60%). Taking the percentage of the price gives the saving, not the price you pay. Subtract it, or multiply by the share that is left.

What the result means

After 60% off, you pay 40% of the price: 80 instead of 200, a saving of 120.

Shopping: an item marked $200 with 60% off costs $80 at the till, before any sales tax.

Stacked discounts

60% off followed by another 60% off is 84% off in total, not 100%: the second discount applies to the lower price.
