Jenny needs £8 extra to buy the tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny's kitchen floor is in the form of trapezoid.

Area of a trapezoid =

                               = 28 meter²

One pack of tiles covers the area = 3 meter²

She needs the number of packs of tiles =  

= 9.33

Therefore, she has to purchase 10 packs of tiles.

Since the price of one pack of tiles = £14.40

Price of 10 packs of tiles = 14.40 × 10

                                                = £144

Price after using discount card of 25% = 144 -(25% of 144)

                                                                = 144 - (0.25 × 144)

                                                                = 144 - 36

                                                                = £108

Jenny has £100, so she needs £8 extra to buy the tiles.
