1. What is Full Price Calculation?

The Full Price calculation determines the original price before a discount was applied. This is useful when you know the discounted price and discount percentage but need to find out the original price.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formula:

Where:

• Discounted Price — The sale price after discount (in USD)
• Discount % — The percentage discount applied (0-100%)

Explanation: The formula reverses the discount calculation by dividing the discounted price by (1 - discount percentage).

3. Importance of Full Price Calculation

Details: Knowing the original price helps in price comparisons, understanding the true value of discounts, and making informed purchasing decisions.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the discounted price in USD and discount percentage (0-99.99%). Both values must be positive numbers with discount percentage less than 100%.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why can't the discount be 100%?
A: A 100% discount would make the denominator zero (1 - 1 = 0), which is mathematically undefined (division by zero).

Q2: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically precise when you know the exact discounted price and discount percentage.

Q3: Can this be used for multiple discounts?
A: No, this calculates the original price before a single discount. For multiple discounts, you would need to apply the formula sequentially.

Q4: Does this work for price markups?
A: No, this is specifically for calculating original prices from discounts. For markups, a different formula is needed.

Q5: What about taxes?
A: This calculator doesn't account for taxes. It calculates the pre-tax original price before discount.
