The Brown family are going to visit the zoo and noticed that if you order a family ticket online you receive ⅒ off the full price. The normal price for a family ticket is £42.50. How much will the Brown family pay with the discount?


To calculate the discounted price the Brown family will pay, we need to apply the discount to the original price. Here's how to do it:

1. **Find the amount of the discount**:
   \[
   \text{Discount} = \frac{1}{10} \times 42.50 = \frac{42.50}{10} = 4.25 \text{ pounds}
   \]

2. **Subtract the discount from the original price**:
   \[
   \text{Discounted Price} = 42.50 - 4.25 = 38.25 \text{ pounds}
   \]

So, the Brown family will pay **£38.25** for the family ticket with the discount.
