 One way of grouping these 8 books is:
 
-- 1 group of 5 --> 25% discount (1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th)
-- +1 group of 3 --> 10% discount (1st,2nd,3rd)
+- 1 group of 5 (1st, 2nd,3rd, 4th, 5th)
+- 1 group of 3 (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
 
 This would give a total of:
 
 - 5 books at a 25% discount
-- +3 books at a 10% discount
+- 3 books at a 10% discount
 
 Resulting in:
 
-- 5 x (8 - 2.00) == 5 x 6.00 == $30.00
-- +3 x (8 - 0.80) == 3 x 7.20 == $21.60
+- 5 × (100% - 25%) × $8 = 5 × $6.00 = $30.00, plus
+- 3 × (100% - 10%) × $8 = 3 × $7.20 = $21.60
 
-For a total of $51.60
+Which equals $51.60.
 
 However, a different way to group these 8 books is:
 
-- 1 group of 4 books --> 20% discount  (1st,2nd,3rd,4th)
-- +1 group of 4 books --> 20% discount  (1st,2nd,3rd,5th)
+- 1 group of 4 books (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th)
+- 1 group of 4 books (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th)
 
 This would give a total of:
 
 - 4 books at a 20% discount
-- +4 books at a 20% discount
+- 4 books at a 20% discount
 
 Resulting in:
 
-- 4 x (8 - 1.60) == 4 x 6.40 == $25.60
-- +4 x (8 - 1.60) == 4 x 6.40 == $25.60
+- 4 × (100% - 20%) × $8 = 4 × $6.40 = $25.60, plus
+- 4 × (100% - 20%) × $8 = 4 × $6.40 = $25.60
 
-For a total of $51.20
+Which equals $51.20.
 
 And $51.20 is the price with the biggest discount.
