How We Calculated This

20% off $999 means you pay 80% of the original price.

$999 × 0.80 = $799.20

The discount amount is $999 × 0.20 = $199.80, which gets subtracted from the original $999 price.

Rule of 100: For items over $100, dollar amounts sound bigger. "$199.80 off" feels more impressive than "20% off" — even though they’re identical.
