Answer:

£0.60

Explanation:

If each pack costs £1.59 and Nadia orders 15 packs,

then the total order before discount = 1.59 x 15 = £23.85

From the table given, we can see that for an order of £23.85 a 2.5% discount will be applied.

Divide £23.85 by 100 to get 1%: £23.85 ÷ 100 = £0.2385

Now multiply by 2.5 to get 2.5%: £0.2385 × 2.5 = £0.59625 = £0.60

Alternatively, the calculation in one expression is:

(1.59 × 15) × 0.025 = 0.59625
