Question

In May, the local bike shop sold a hybrid bike for $399. Over the next four months, the

cost of the bike was reduced $25 each month. How much was the bike shop selling the
hybrid bike for in September?
O $299
O $499
O $274
O $100

Answer 1

To determine the selling price of the hybrid bike in September, we need to subtract $25 for each month from the original price of $399.

May: $399
June: $399 - $25 = $374
July: $374 - $25 = $349
August: $349 - $25 = $324
September: $324 - $25 = $299

Therefore, the bike shop was selling the hybrid bike for $299 in September.

The correct answer is $299.
