How We Calculated This
72% off $500 means you pay 28% of the original price.
$500 × 0.28 = $140.00
The discount amount is $500 × 0.72 = $360.00, which gets subtracted from the original $500 price.
Rule of 100: For items over $100, dollar amounts sound bigger. "$360.00 off" feels more impressive than "72% off" — even though they’re identical.
