How We Calculated This
5% off $150 means you pay 95% of the original price.
$150 × 0.95 = $142.50
The discount amount is $150 × 0.05 = $7.50, which gets subtracted from the original $150 price.
Rule of 100: For items over $100, dollar amounts sound bigger. "$7.50 off" feels more impressive than "5% off" — even though they’re identical.
