      Multiply the price by 20%, which is " .20 "


      $39.99 × .20 (you could just make it " .2 ") =   $7.998. Likely, you'd get a discount of $8.00

        20% of 39.99 is 7.998
        39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992
        This is same as 80% of 39.99
        You must round this figure (31.992) to suit your country's currency requirement.
        For example, in Australia, this figure is rounded to two decimal places which is 31.99 and then rounded to the nearest five cents which is 40.00 (five cent coin is the smallest coin in use at present).

          Or, if you mean you paid $39.99 for something that was on sale at 20% off ...


          Original price = $49.99


          20% off = $10.00


          You paid $39.99
