How We Calculated This
80% off $5 means you pay 20% of the original price.
$5 × 0.20 = $1.00
The discount amount is $5 × 0.80 = $4.00, which gets subtracted from the original $5 price.
Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "80% off" feels more impressive than "$4.00 off" — even though they’re identical.
