Question

On a certain game show, a contestant must guess the price of a car within 1% of it's actual value in order to win it. If the price of the car is $25,000 and she wins the car, what is the highest price (rounded to the nearest dollar) she could have guessed?

Answer 1

The highest price will be the price of the car plus 1% of the actual price

So,

The highest price = 25,000 + 1% of 25,000 = 25,250
