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
In the given question, there are numerous information's already provided. It is important to note then down first. With the help of those given information's the required answer can be easily reached.
Percentage of students that weighed 140 pounds = 75 percent
Then
Percentage of students that weighed more than 140 pounds = (100 - 75) percent
= 25 percent
Total number of students that were weighed = 40 students
Total number of students that weighed more than 140 pounds = (25/100) * 40
= (40/4) students
= 10 students
So the number of students that weighed more than 140 pounds is 10. So the correct option in regards to the given question is option "1".
