the cost of one photocopy is $ 0.02 . however , a 25 % discount is offered on orders of more than 100 photocopies . if steve and dennison have to make 80 copies each , how much will each of them save if they submit a single order of 160 copies ?
"if steve and dennison submit separate orders , each would be smaller than 100 photocopies , so no discount . each would pay ( 80 ) * ( $ 0.02 ) = $ 1.60 , or together , a cost of $ 3.20 - - - that ' s the combined no discount cost . if they submit things together as one big order , they get a discount off of that $ 3.20 price - - - - 25 % or 1 / 4 of that is $ 0.80 , the discount on the combined sale . they each effective save half that amount , or $ 0.40 . answer = ( b ) ."
divide(subtract(multiply(const_2, multiply(80, 0.02)), multiply(multiply(160, divide(subtract(100, 25), 100)), 0.02)), const_2)
