P= Price

O= Original price

N= Number of days

P= O - (N * 0.02)

EXAMPLE:

O= 50

N= 1 day

P= 50 - ( 1* 0.02) = 49.98

N= 2 days

P= 50 - ( 2* 0.02) = 49.96

N= 3 days

P= 50 - ( 3* 0.02) = 49.94

N= 4 days

P= 50 - ( 4* 0.02) = 49.92

N= 5 days

P= 50 - ( 5* 0.02) = 49.90

N= 6 days

P= 50 - ( 6* 0.02) = 49.88

N= 7 days

P= 50 - ( 7* 0.02) = 49.86
