It also displays the total discount amount and percentage, showing how much a buyer saves or how much a seller reduces from the original price.

Whether you’re a shopper looking for the best deal or a seller adjusting prices, this calculator simplifies the process. Just enter the original price and discount percentages and get instant results!

How to Calculate a Triple Discount

When multiple discounts are applied, they are not simply added together. Instead, each discount is applied sequentially to the reduced price.

Formula

If an item has an original price (P) and three discount rates D₁, D₂, and D₃, the final price after applying the three discounts is calculated as:

Final Price = P × (1−D/1100) × (1−D2/100) × (1−D3/100)

The total discount amount is:

Total Discount = P − Final Price

Example

Scenario:

A store sells a laptop with an original price of $1000. The store applies the following three discounts:

  • First discount: 10%
  • Second discount: 15%
  • Third discount: 5%

Calculation

  1. Apply the first discount (10%)
  2. 1000 × (1−10/100) = 1000 × 0.90 = 900
  3. Apply the second discount (15%)
  4. 900 × (1−15/100) = 900 × 0.85 = 765
  5. Apply the third discount (5%)
  6. 765 × (1−5/100) = 765 × 0.95 = 726.75

Final Results

  • Final Price = $726.75
  • Total Discount Amount = $1000 – $726.75 = $273.25
  • Total Discount Percentage = (273.25/1000 × 100) = 27.33%

Thus, the effective total discount is 27.33%, not simply 10% + 15% + 5% = 30%, because discounts apply sequentially, not cumulatively.
