(Urgent)Question about MIcro upgrades and sales.

[LOLKILLERTOTHEDEATH 1,921]

SO I fully micro upgraded my hornet m1's armour parameter, my question is that it states 20 % sale, if I choose to get m2 hornet on the june sales, it will be 70% off right ?

[dilsharox 2,395]

u wont get 70% off for just fully MUing 1 parameter

according to the new system if u fully MU all the parameters of hornet m1, you'll get hornet m2 for free when u unlock it

^ He didn't read your question correctly. Yes, M2 Hornet will be 70% off for you. 20+50= 70.

It will be 60% off. Discounts don't add up. You'll get 20% off, and then 50% off the remainder I think!

You have to learn how percentages work. When there is a 50% sale on an item, which already has a 20% sale, then you don't simply add the percentages to get the final discount.

 

50% = 0.5 and 20% = 0.2

Hornet M2 costs 70500 crystals

That with a 20% discount is 70500 - (70500 x 0.2)

Additional 50% sale to the resulting price of 56400 is 56400 / 2

The final price is 28200

The final discount is (1 - 28200 / 70500) x 100% which is 60%

So, to get the final value from a multiple discount you need to convert the discounts to decimals and multiply the original cost Y as follows: Y x (1 - A) x (1 - B ) x (1 - C) x (1 - D)... and so on, where A, B C and D are the decimal values of multiple sales on the item.

To get the final percentage discount you need to do: 100 x (1 - A) x (1 - B ) x (1 - C) x (1 - D)... and so on, where A, B C and D are the decimal values of multiple sales on the item.

 

So yeah, to answer your question: no, the final sale is not 70% and to find the value after two sales (e.g. 50% and 20%) you must find 50% of the original and 80% (100 - 20) of the answer.
