Question

Kate wants to buy a new bicycle from a sporting goods store. The bicycle she wants normally sells for $800. The store has a sale where all bicycles cost 7 8 of the regular price. What is the sale price of the bicycle?

Answer 1

Answer:

700 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price is basically the new price of the bycicle. Therefore, is all bycicles cost 7/8 of their normal value, $\frac{7}{8} (800)=700$. So during this sale at the sporting goods store, the bycicle would cost 700 dollars.

Answer 2

An$wer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8 * 800 = 7/8 * 800/1

= 7 * 800/8 * 1 ( 800 and 8 are simplified to 100 and 1 )

= 7 * 100 / 1* 1

=700/1 = 700
