How much does he pay when he orders the bed?
£ 80

Answer 1

Caleb pays £320 when he orders the bed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Caleb is buying a new bed costing £400. He pays off the total cost when he orders the bed and the rest on delivery. To calculate how much he pays when he orders the bed, subtract the amount he pays on delivery from the total cost. If he pays the rest on delivery, it means he pays £400 - £x at the time of ordering, where x is the amount he pays on delivery. Since he pays £80 on delivery, he pays £400 - £80 = £320 when he orders the bed.
