D)6c

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct expression for "one-seventh off regular price" is $c - \frac{1}{7}c$, which simplifies to $\frac{6}{7}c$. However, none of the options exactly match this. The closest option, given the choices, is A) $\frac{1}{6}c$, but it's important to note that this is actually incorrect based on the question's scenario. The correct mathematical expression should be $\frac{6}{7}c$, indicating a mistake in the provided options.
