Answer:

22 bicycles

Explanation:

50 bicycles = $100.50

therefore 1 bicycle = $100.50 ÷ 50

= $2.01

so $45÷ $2.01 = 22 bicycles

because $2.01× 22= $44.22

$45.00- $44.22= $0.78

Answer


22 WHOLE bicycles


Step by step explanation

If you divide 100.50 by 50 you get how much it cost for each bicycle which is 2.01 and when you divided 45 by 2.01 you get 22 and a bunch of random numbers but you can’t get that part of a bicycle because you are not going to cut a bicycle into pieces so you will be able to buy 22 and you will have some left over money but that doesn’t matter you can get 22 whole bicycle with 45 dollars
