A The discount is calculated by multiplying the percentage discount by the original cost of the book. In this case, the discount is 5% of 1000 naira.
Discount = 5/100 * 1000 = 50 naira.
B To calculate how much was paid, we subtract the discount from the original cost.
Amount paid = Original cost - Discount = 1000 naira - 50 naira = 950 naira.
