A bicycle that usually sells for $230 is on sale for 15% off. Find the sale price.
Is this correct 230/25=9.2
230-9.2=220.8
No. Where did you get 25?
(1.00 - 0.15) * 230 = ?
Yeah, where did you get 25 from. There is no 25.
And the answer is 195.5
To find the sale price of a bicycle that is on sale for 15% off, you need to follow these steps:
1. Calculate the amount of the discount: Multiply the original price ($230) by the discount percentage (15% = 0.15): 230 * 0.15 = $34.50.
2. Subtract the amount of the discount from the original price to find the sale price: 230 - 34.50 = $195.50.
Therefore, the sale price of the bicycle is $195.50, not $220.8.
