What is 70% off $120?

How it's calculated

1. Find the discount: 70% of $120 = $120 × 0.7 = $84.00
2. Subtract it from the price: $120 − $84.00 = $36.00

Shortcut: with 70% off you pay 30% of the price, so multiply $120 × 0.3 = $36.00 in one step.

Sales tax, if any, is usually added after the discount and isn't included here.
