How We Calculated This

40% off $10 means you pay 60% of the original price.

$10 × 0.60 = $6.00

The discount amount is $10 × 0.40 = $4.00, which gets subtracted from the original $10 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "40% off" feels more impressive than "$4.00 off" — even though they’re identical.
