To calculate the total amount paid in the sale, you need to follow the given instructions for applying the discount percentages.

a) Ivy buys 5 DVDs with a price label of £6 each.
- Since the price label is less than £8, she will get a 10% discount.
- To calculate the discount, multiply the price by the discount percentage: £6 * 0.10 = £0.60.
- Subtract the discount from the original price to find the discounted price: £6 - £0.60 = £5.40.
- Multiply the discounted price by the quantity of DVDs: £5.40 * 5 = £27.

- For the DVDs priced at £4, the price label is less than £8, so Kurt gets a 10% discount.
- Calculate the discount for each DVD: £4 * 0.10 = £0.40.
- Subtract the discount from the original price to find the discounted price: £4 - £0.40 = £3.60.
- Multiply the discounted price by the quantity of DVDs priced at £4: £3.60 * 2 = £7.20.
- For the DVDs priced at £17, the price label is more than £8, so Kurt gets a 15% discount.
- Calculate the discount for each DVD: £17 * 0.15 = £2.55.
