Solution
The activity sheet you've shared seems to have multiple math problems regarding discounts and pricing. Let's tackle them one by one.
Part I

Cris's Bicycle Discount Rate Calculation Cris bought a bicycle for with a discount. We need to calculate the discount rate as a percentage. This will give us the discount rate as a percentage.
Part II
For the given table:
-
Birthday Cake With an original price of and a discount rate of 18%, calculate the discount and the sale price.
-
Medicine Kit with Complete Set With a sale price of and a discount of , calculate the original price and then validate the discount rate of 20%. Then check:
-
Laptop Given a discount of and a sale price of , calculate the original price.
-
Wrist Watch Given the original price of and a discount rate of 34%, find the discount amount and the sale price.
-
Study Table Given a sale price of and a discount rate of 18%, calculate the original price.
I will now perform the calculations for each of these scenarios. Let's start with Peter's motorcycle payments.It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later.
