1. What is the Full Price Formula?

The Full Price Formula calculates the original price before a discount was applied. It's useful for determining the original retail price when you know the discounted price and the discount percentage.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the Full Price formula:

Where:

• Discounted Price — The sale price after discount ($)
• Discount % — The percentage discount applied (%)

Explanation: The formula reverses the discount calculation to find the original price before the discount was applied.

3. Importance of Full Price Calculation

Details: Calculating the full price is important for budgeting, price comparison, understanding the true value of discounts, and financial planning.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the discounted price in dollars and the discount percentage. Both values must be valid (price > 0, discount between 0-99.99%).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why can't I use 100% discount?
A: A 100% discount would make the discounted price $0, and division by zero is mathematically undefined.

Q2: Can this calculator handle multiple discounts?
A: No, this calculator is designed for a single discount percentage. For multiple discounts, you would need to calculate them sequentially.

Q3: What if I know the discount amount instead of percentage?
A: If you know the discount amount in dollars, simply add it to the discounted price to get the full price.

Q4: Does this work for price increases too?
A: No, this formula is specifically for calculating original prices before discounts. For price increases, a different calculation is needed.

Q5: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically precise when you have the exact discounted price and discount percentage.
