Calculating the final price after a simple percentage discount is applied.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of calculating the discount and subtracting it, you can multiply the regular price by the percentage of the price you are actually paying. If the discount is 20%, you pay 100% - 20% = 80% of the original price. 600×0.80=600 \times 0.80 = 480.
