Workaholic | How would I calculate $139.00 by 40% the short way? |
Items cost $ 139.00 but need to get 40% off and need a short way to calculate on calculator. |

Easy. Do a mental calculation. No need for any calculator.
Take the nearest large number, which is 140. You have to pay 60% of that price, right? (40% off).
140 * 6 = 84. (Take off a decimal).
Here is one: An item is 25% off. It sells for $101.99 How much will you pay?
Take 100 * 75 = $75 (take off decimals of course).
All this is approximate but you are quite close to the price you will be paying at the cash register. And, such quick calculation is good enough for shopping. |

simply multiply the $139.00 by .60 (or 60%)
Think about it, if you are taking 40% off of an item, then the item will sell for 60% of it's original value. |

If I understand your question, you are trying to get what the price would be after taking 40% off of 139? If this is the case take 139 x 60% and you would get 83.40 |

In any problem like this you need to multiply by the difference between this number and 100%. If you want to know what 40% off is, the other way of phrasing this is "what is 60% of the current value?" (100-40= 60) |

Round $139.00 to $140.00. 10% would be $14.00 by just moving the decimal place to the left two places. (ones and then tens)
Then multiply 14 by 4 because that is 14+14+14+14 or 40%.
The answer us $56.00.
You can also multiply 14 by 4 by saying 10 times 4=40 plus 4 times 4 which is 16 and the answer would again be $56.00. |

To get the amount to be paid, multiply $139 times .60 To get the discount, multiply 139 by .40 |

139 x's .4 |

0.4 * 139.00 will give you the discount on the item and
0.6 * 139.00 will give you the amount to be paid |

You either can multiply the original value by the remaining price
139 * .60
or you can multiply it by .40 and get the discount, and subtract that from the original price
139- (139*.40) |
