- Sale price = $60 − $24.00 = $36.00.
Quick answer
40% off $60 is $36.00. The discount is $60 × 40% = $24.00, and $60 − $24.00 = $36.00, so you pay 60% of the original price. Sales tax, if any, is added to the $36.00 sale price. For a quick mental check, 10% of $60 is $6.00, so 40% is 4 times that.
