How We Calculated This

70% off $5 means you pay 30% of the original price.

$5 × 0.30 = $1.50

The discount amount is $5 × 0.70 = $3.50, which gets subtracted from the original $5 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "70% off" feels more impressive than "$3.50 off" — even though they’re identical.
