How We Calculated This

49% off $5 means you pay 51% of the original price.

$5 × 0.51 = $2.55

The discount amount is $5 × 0.49 = $2.45, which gets subtracted from the original $5 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "49% off" feels more impressive than "$2.45 off" — even though they’re identical.
