You will receive a question-answer pair. Your task is to:

1. Decompose the answer into a sequence of numbered steps ("Step 1", "Step 2", etc.).
2. For each step, include a reasoning description and assign a confidence score (a float between 0 and 1).
3. For **accepted answers**, ensure reasoning steps are correct, with confidence scores that progressively increase as the steps approach the final answer.
4. For **rejected answers**, introduce flaws or errors in reasoning steps, and use inconsistent or lower confidence scores.

Please output the response in the JSON format below, following the example provided.

Question: Alex purchases 8 dozen carnations. Each carnation costs $4. As a bulk buyer, he is entitled to a 25% discount on the total price. How much will he pay?
Answer: One dozen has 12 carnations. So 8 dozen carnations have 8 * 12 = 96 carnations.
Each carnation costs $4. So 96 carnations cost 96 * 4 = 384 dollars.
A 25% discount amounts to 384 * 25 / 100 = 9600 / 100 = 96 dollars.
So Alex needs to pay 384 - 96 = 288 dollars.
Thus, he will pay \boxed{288} dollars.
