How We Calculated This

2% off $30 means you pay 98% of the original price.

$30 × 0.98 = $29.40

The discount amount is $30 × 0.02 = $0.60, which gets subtracted from the original $30 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "2% off" feels more impressive than "$0.60 off" — even though they’re identical.
