Question

A school hall costs £200 to hire.

Parents get a 10% discount.
30 parents share the cost equally.
How much does each parent pay

Answer 1

£6

Explanation:

The computation of the each parent pay is shown below;

But before that the cost of hall after considering the discount is

= £200 - 10% of £200

= £200 - £20

= £180

Now there are 30 parents

So each parent pay is

= £180 ÷ 30 parents

= £6
