Question

A couple pays £1200 for a holiday in Portugal. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic the holiday

company cancels the holiday and gives the customers this option:
Rebook another holiday and get a 20% incentive*
We have a range of alternative holidays available for you to choose from and would love to take
you are
away on holiday. Plus, if the holiday you book is more expensive than your original holiday,
you’ll automatically receive an incentive worth up to 20% of the value of the holiday*.


Given that the customers had already paid the holiday company £1200 for the holiday in Portugal, and are paying an equal share towards this holiday, how much extra will it cost them each?

Answer 1

impossible

Explanation:

If the customers choose to rebook a holiday that is more expensive than the original holiday in Portugal, and the holiday company is offering an incentive worth up to 20% of the value of the holiday, the customers will have to pay the difference between the original holiday and the new holiday, minus the 20% incentive.

Without more information on the cost of the new holiday, it is impossible to determine how much extra it will cost the customers each
