From the given information:

  • Mia's loyalty card has a discount rate of = 16%
  • The total cost of items she wants to buy = $24.50

Thus, before tax deduction, the total of items bought while taking the discount rate into consideration is:

= 16% × $24.50

[tex]\mathbf{= \dfrac{16}{100} \times \$24.50}[/tex]
