Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction of the juice Alisa drank was
3/8 liter
--------------------
3/2 liters
and this fraction can be simplified by inverting the divisor (3/2 liters) and multiplying instead:
3 2
------ * ----- = 2/8 or 1/4
8 3
Alisa drank 1/4 of the juice that was originally in the bottle.
Let x = price of the bike before a sales tax.
The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars
Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50
Answer: 158.50
