Question 58

Extract B (lines 12–15) states: ‘Since 2018, visitors staying in boutique heritage accommodations during the summer season have been charged a conservation levy of £10 for each night. However, they are only charged for a maximum of four nights, even if their stay is longer. Visitors pay 30% less during the winter season.’

Calculate the total amount of conservation levy paid by three people staying for six nights in a boutique heritage accommodation during the winter season.
