960.00x0.14= 134.4

960.00 - 134.4 = 825.6 < answer

Answer:

$825.60

Explanation:

Since the price of it is $960.00, it means that it's 100%.

100% = 960

1% = 960 ÷ 100 = 9.6

14% = 9.6 x 14 = 134.40

Since they asked for after the discount, deduct the price of the discount with the original price.

Mountain bike after 14% discount =

960 - 134.40 = 825.60
