“Adult” -> from-to is a range of number of Adults (from 1 Adult to 5 Adults)

2 examples
Weekend markup: The first rule we create is a weekend markup of 10%, we noticed that weekends are very popular and we, therefore, want to increase the price of the car rental. We select the “range of days” and set it from ‘Saturday’ to ‘Sunday’, to indicate the weekend (all year).
Tuesday discount: The second rule we created is a “Fall discount” because we noticed that Tuesdays are not very popular. We decided to lower the price by 25% every Tuesday in the fall. To do so we first select the “Range of months” (indicating the season) and secondly we select ‘Tuesday’ to ‘Tuesday’, in “Range of days”, to indicate the exact day.
