Answer:
£0.60
Step-by-step 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

<u>Completing the square</u>
when 
Given equation:
Subtract 40 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 3:
Add the square of half the coefficient of 
to both sides:
Factor the left side and simplify the right side:
Square root both sides:
Add 4 to both sides and simplify the radical:
And the answer is......
5.08
I think this is the associative property of multiplication.
