How to work out 40% off $120

Turn the discount into a decimal: 40 ÷ 100 = 0.4.
Multiply by the price: 0.4 × $120 = $48 — that is the amount you save.
Subtract the saving from the price: $120 − $48 = $72.

Mental-math shortcut: Take 10% and multiply by four, or pay 60% of the price. (1% of $120 is $1.20, so 40% is $1.20 × 40 = $48.)

40% off $120 is a $48 discount for a $72 final price. On a $120 coat or pair of boots, 40% off is a genuine bargain and often the best the item will get before it sells out in popular sizes. Ten per cent is $12, so four times that is the $48 saving.

Method & sources

Saving = price × discount ÷ 100, and sale price = price − saving. Amounts are rounded to the cent only for display. Stacked discounts multiply rather than add — 20% off and then another 20% off is 36% off in total, not 40% — and sales tax, where it applies, is charged on the discounted price.
