Abicycle normally sells for $237.99. it is now on sale for 25% off. as an employee, baron is able to save an extra 10% off the sale price. what is the most reasonable estimate of the price baron must pay to buy the bicycle?

First we have to find the total amount of savings on the bicycle, which we can find by adding together the sale discount and Baron's employee discount.

25% + 10% = 35%

Because this is an estimate, we are going to round the bicycle's price to $250.00.  

Because we know that Baron gets a 35% discount, we can assume that he is paying for 65% (0.65) of the bike's original price.

0.65 * 250 = $162.50

Therefore, a reasonable estimate of the price Baron must pay to buy the bicycle is $162.50.

Definitely
