15% of 1200 is 180. Twelve hundred is a figure that shows up in annual figures split by month, multi-day event budgets, and round quotes that sit above a thousand. The fifteen-percent share is 180, built cleanly as 10% + 5%. Another check that belongs to this base: 15% of 600 is 90, and doubling gives 180 because 1200 is 2 × 600.
If a headline says “15% off” on £1200, the reduction is £180 and you pay £1020. Keeping both numbers in view avoids quoting the net total when someone only asked for the discount slice.
