How We Calculated This
20% off $45 means you pay 80% of the original price.
$45 × 0.80 = $36.00
The discount amount is $45 × 0.20 = $9.00, which gets subtracted from the original $45 price.
Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "20% off" feels more impressive than "$9.00 off" — even though they’re identical.
