Answer:
I solved it and my answer is number 1
The answer should be: B) at least 84

Your max amount for this is $20. Let's say x represents the number of gallons.
20 ≥ 3.2x
x = 6.25 gallons
If they're asking for integers or whole numbers, you'd round down to 6 because you only have enough money for 6 full gallons. If you rounded up to 7, you wouldn't be able to fill it up completely because then you'd be over your $20.00 budget for gas.
It is close to 200 because 150 or above would be rounded to 200. Below 150 would be 100
The final price (what it is selling for) is $796.40
The markup is 10% of the original price (the dealer's cost) , meaning that it is 10% more.
We need to find the original price.
We write this as an equation
The original price *110% = final price
This is because the original price is itself (100%) added with 10%
Plug in the known final price
Original Price * 110% = 796.40
Convert 110% to a decimal because the other numbers- such as the final price are also decimal numbers.
Convert 110% to a decimal by moving the decimal point up 2 spaces ( basically dividing it by 100)
110% = 1.1
So it is now
Original price *1.1 = 796.40
Divide both sides by 1.1 to isolate our unknown, the original price
Original price = $724
