Solution :

Since Ethan orders 5 boxes of paper clips, and each box costs 15.40 pounds, then you have:  

15.40 x 5 =77.00 pounds worth of paper clips that Ethan buys.

Since all purchases between 55.00 and 79.99 pounds, he gets a discount of 6.50%,

it therefore follows that : 77 x 6.50% =5.01 pounds that Ethan gets in discount.

So, that:

£ ( 77 - 5.01) =71.99 → Total cost of 5 boxes of paper clips.
