How We Calculated This
15% off $30 means you pay 85% of the original price.
$30 × 0.85 = $25.50
The discount amount is $30 × 0.15 = $4.50, which gets subtracted from the original $30 price.
Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "15% off" feels more impressive than "$4.50 off" — even though they’re identical.
