Complete question :
A bookstore manager marks down the price of older hardcover books, which originally sell for b dollars, by 52%.
a. Write the markdown as a decimal. b. Write an expression for the sale price of the hardcover book.

Original price * markdown
b * 0.52
0.52b
I mean it could be read that way but that's the way most people read fractions. 11 and 8/10. Most people I know read decimals like that as 11 point 8. So yes I suppose it's true; it's not wrong, but most people don't say it like that. And I don't know how they taught you to read it in your math course.
