How do you calculate the final price after a discount?

Subtract the discount amount (savings) from the original price. Formula: Final Price = Original Price - Savings. Alternatively, you can multiply the original price by (1 - (Discount % / 100)).

What if an item has multiple discounts?

Discounts are usually sequential. First, apply the 10% discount to the original price. Then, apply the 5% discount to the new, reduced price . (e.g., $100 with 10% off = $90. Then $90 with 5% off = $85.50. This is not the same as a 15% discount).
