How We Calculated This

27% off $5 means you pay 73% of the original price.

$5 × 0.73 = $3.65

The discount amount is $5 × 0.27 = $1.35, which gets subtracted from the original $5 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "27% off" feels more impressive than "$1.35 off" — even though they’re identical.
