What you pay and what you save. Work forwards from a price, backwards from a sale price, or stack several discounts one after another — which is not the same as adding them up.
You pay
Multiply the price by the percentage, divide by 100, and subtract the result from the price.
No. The second discount applies to the already reduced price, so the pair comes to 28% off, not 30%.
Divide the sale price by one minus the discount rate. A price of £80 after 20% off started at £80 ÷ 0.8, which is £100.
No. It works on the prices you enter. Apply tax separately if your prices exclude it.
