The correct option is b.
Explanation of solution : Original Price $ 7700
Now let 's calculate 2 / 7th of the original priceSince, it's 2 parts decreasing out of7parts of $ 7700
we need to get the value of
one part of 57700 7700: 7 = $ 1100 = 1 / 7 of $ 7700 Now
2 parts 2x1100 = $ 2200 = 2/7 of $ 7700 The car value decreased by 2/7 of the orignal price of $ 7700, so we will decrease $ 2200 from 57700 7700 - 2200 = $ 5500 therefore $ 5500 is the new price.
In summary this equation is, 7700 - (2 / 7x7700) = $ 5500
