Question

In a bicycle store, a $500 bicycle is marked, "Get a 30% discount." What is the sale

price of the bicycle?

Answer 1

$350

Explanation:

You have to multiply 500 by 0.7 to find the discount price.

500*0.7=350

Answer 2

350

Explanation:

1. Take 30% of 500

You can accomplish this by multiplying 500 by 0.3 to get 150

500 x 0.3 = 150

150 is 30% of 500

2. Subtract your findings (30%) from total price (500)

500 - 150 = 350

350 is the sale price with a 30% discount on a $500 bicycle
