Jenny wants to know if she has got enough money to buy the tiles.The tiles are sold in packs, which cover 2m2 Jenny has a discount card which gives her 25% off any marked price at the DIY shop.

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £8

Step-by-step explanation:

Floor area = 30.0 m^2

Area covered by a pack of tiles = 2.0 m^2

Number of packs needed = 30/2

Number of packs needed = 15

Price of a pack of tiles = £9.60

Discount = 25%

Jenny will pay 75% of the marked price

Amount Jenny will pay for a pack of tiles = 75% of 9.60 = 0.75*9.60

Amount Jenny will pay for a pack of tiles = £7.20

Amount Jenny will pay for 15 packs of tiles = 7.20 x 15

Amount Jenny will pay for 15 packs of tiles = £108

The amount of money Jenny currently has = £100

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £108 - £100

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £8
