Kyle was given the following question to solve.

A company sells baseball gloves and bats. the gloves regularly cost $30 and the bats regularly cost $90. the gloves are on sale for 4% off, and the bats are on sale for 10% off. The goal is to sell $1200 worth of bats and gloves each week. last week the store sold 14 gloves and 9 bats.

did the store meet its goal?

the steps kyle used to solve the problem are shown. select the first step that shows an error.

Step 1: $30 - $4 = 26

step 2: $26 x $14 = 364

step 3: $90 : 0.9 = $100

step 4: $100 x 9 = $900

step 5: $900 + $364 = $1264

yes, the store met its goal.
