    I you take 75% off the original price, 25% remains.

    If you take 60% off the original price, 40% remains. Taking 15% off that means you take off an additional 0.15*40% = 6% of the original price, so end up with

    40% - 6% = 34%

    of the original price. This is considerably more than 25% of the original price.

    The store sign is not accurate, because the "additional 15%" is of the sale price, not the original price.
