Discount = Original Price × Discount % / 100

Discount = 17.00 × 15/100

Discount = 17.00 × 0.15

You save = $2.55

You can easily calculate the discount or percent-off and the final or Final Price of an item by following these steps:

1. Multiply the original price by the discount percentage, then divide it by 100 :

17.00 times 15 divided by 100 =

17.00 × 15 / 100 = 17.00 × 0.15 = 2.55 (This is the discount).

2. Subtract the discount (percent-off) from the original price to get the final price:

17.00 minus 2.55 = 17.00 - 2.55 = 14.45.

So, an item that costs 17.00, when discounted 15 percent, will have the final price equal to 14.45.
