Answer:

  c.  $77.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The CPI is 100 times the ratio of prices relative to those in some reference period. Here, we assume the reference year is 1983, so a CPI of 186 means the current prices are 1.86 times those in 1983.

  1.86 × $41.40 = $77.00

The helment price will be $77.00 when the CPI is 186.
