Two successive discounts are multiplied, not simply added. This calculator shows the true combined reduction.

120 × (1 − 20%) × (1 − 10%)
The second discount applies to the reduced price. These examples show the final price and the equivalent single discount.
What is the final price of 120 with discounts of 20% and 10%?
The first discount leaves 120 × 0.8 = 96. The second leaves 96 × 0.9 = 86.40. You save 33.60, which is 28% of 120, rather than 30%.
What remains from 100 after two 50% discounts?
The first discount halves 100 to 50. The second halves 50 to 25. Each percentage uses the price at that step, so 25% of the original remains.
An item costs 200, with 30% off and then a 5% coupon. What do you pay?
200 × 0.7 = 140, then 140 × 0.95 = 133. The coupon saves 7 on the reduced price. Total savings are 67, or 33.5% of the original.
The equivalent discount is 1 − (1 − first rate) × (1 − second rate), with rates written as decimals. Use the final prices to compare offers on the same original price.

The second discount applies to the already reduced price; do not add the rates. The effective discount is undefined when the original price is zero. Taxes and fees are not added; check rates outside 0–100%.
Formula usedfinal price = original × (1 − first rate ÷ 100) × (1 − second rate ÷ 100)effective discount % = savings ÷ original × 100Calculation checks updated 27 September 2026: automated tests cover sample inputs and numeric boundaries, not every possible input or commercial rule.
Usually no. A second discount applies to the already discounted price, so 20% followed by 10% is an effective 28% discount, not 30%.
Multiply the original price by one minus the first rate, then by one minus the second rate.
No. The result is before tax unless your starting price already included it.
