How We Calculated This

56% off $5 means you pay 44% of the original price.

$5 × 0.44 = $2.20

The discount amount is $5 × 0.56 = $2.80, which gets subtracted from the original $5 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "56% off" feels more impressive than "$2.80 off" — even though they’re identical.
