Problem

A shop sells bottles of orange juice for $£ 1.60$, but will take $20 \%$ off the total cost when you buy more than 20 bottles. How much does it cost, in pounds $(£)$, to buy 40 bottles of orange juice?

Solution

Step 1 :Calculate the cost of buying 40 bottles without any discount: \(40 \times 1.6 = 64\)

Step 2 :Apply the 20% discount to the total cost: \(64 \times (1 - 0.2) = 51.2\)

Step 3 :\boxed{51.20}
