Answer 1

Answer: the cost of the bicycle is 180$

Explanation:

If Juanita has saved 20% of the money she needs to buy a new bicycle and she has saved $36, we can calculate the cost of the bicycle using the following formula:

(100% - 20%) x cost of bicycle = $36

To find the cost of the bicycle, we can divide both sides of the equation by 80% (100% - 20%), like this:

cost of bicycle = $36 / (100% - 20%)

We know that Juanita has saved $36 and the percentage saved is 20% , so the cost of the bicycle is $180

Answer 2

$180

Explanation:

20*5=100

36*5=180
