Elsie decides to offer 12% discount on a box of butternut. The normal selling price is R218. She estimates to sell 24 boxes during the Easter holiday. Calculate the following:
1. The total selling price of the product she estimates to sells during the Holiday
Total discount on one box = 12% of R218 = 0.12 * 218 = R26.16
Selling price after discount = R218 - R26.16 = R191.84
Total selling price for 24 boxes = R191.84 * 24 = R4604.16
Therefore, Elsie estimates to sell the butternut for a total selling price of R4604.16 during the Easter holiday.
