quickly. How much are the Bakers selling their house for now?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Bakers are now selling their house for $133,860

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage

The original price for The Bakers' house was $145,500.

Later they decided to mark down the price of the house by 8%.

Since the new price will be 8% less than the original price, we can calculate the markdown as follows:

8 * $145,000 / 100 = $11,640

The new price is calculated as the original price minus the markdown:

New price = $145,500 - $11,640 = $133,860

The Bakers are now selling their house for $133,860
