How We Calculated This

90% off $10 means you pay 10% of the original price.

$10 × 0.10 = $1.00

The discount amount is $10 × 0.90 = $9.00, which gets subtracted from the original $10 price.

Rule of 100: For items under $100, percentages sound bigger. "90% off" feels more impressive than "$9.00 off" — even though they’re identical.
