How We Calculated This

42% off $10 means you pay 58% of the original price.

$10 × 0.58 = $5.80

The discount amount is $10 × 0.42 = $4.20, which gets subtracted from the original $10 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "42% off" feels more impressive than "$4.20 off" — even though they’re identical.
