What is 85 Percent Off?
Both “Percent Off” and “Discount” are the same thing.
Percent off = Discount.
“85 percent off” refers to a discount or reduction of 85 percent from the original price of a product or service.
It means that the price of the item is reduced by 85 percent, resulting in a lower cost for the consumer.
For example:
How much is 85% Off of $80?
Saved amount = (80 x (85100)) = $68
Final Price = 80 – 68 = 12
Final Price $12
You Saved $68
An item originally costs $80, a 85 percent off would reduce the price by $68, making the final price $12.
Calculating 85 percent off without a calculator
The easiest way is to calculate 10 percent first of a value without using a calculator, by moving the decimal point one place to the left, Then add on another half of 10% of this number. Viola… you get the result of 15%, subtract the original price with the result of the 15% calculation which is the result of 85% of a number.
Find 10% of a number, and add on another half of 10% of this number = 15%
85% = Original price – 15% value
Final Price = 15% value
