too little information are we playing football?

My research found this

Chain Discounts

Chain discount is the term used when more than one discount is given. Thus, when two or more discounts are given, the second discount is taken off what remains after the amount of the first discount has been deducted from the list price. The same process is continued in cases where three or more discounts are allowed.

Example:


$400 x 1/5 = $80
- 80

$320 x 1/10 = $32
- 32

$288 x 1/20 = $14.40
- 14.40

$273.60 net price - Answer
