    Take the original price, multiply it by 20% (you have to move the decimal place two to the left, so it becomes. 2), then subtract the answer from the original price.

    39.99*.2 = $7.998

    39.99-7.998 = $31.99

    If you wanted to, you could also round the $7.998 to $8.00. Your answer would be the same.
