could someone please explain how to find percent markup, I'm not sure how to do it.
I don't get this
1. To find the percent of decrease, you need to calculate the difference between the original value and the final value, and then divide it by the original value.
In this case, the original value is 75 and the final value is 60.
The difference is 75 - 60 = 15.
Now divide the difference by the original value: 15 / 75 = 0.2.
To express this as a percentage, multiply by 100: 0.2 * 100 = 20%.
So the correct answer is A. 20%.
2. To find the percent markup, you need to calculate the difference between the selling price and the store's cost, and then divide it by the store's cost.
In this case, the store's cost is $100 and the selling price is $160.
The difference is 160 - 100 = 60.
Now divide the difference by the store's cost: 60 / 100 = 0.6.
To express this as a percentage, multiply by 100: 0.6 * 100 = 60%.
So the correct answer is B. 60%.
3. To find the sale price, you need to first find the amount of the discount by multiplying the regular price by the percentage of discount.
In this case, the regular price is $57.63 and the discount percentage is 10%.
Multiply the regular price by the discount percentage: $57.63 * 0.1 = $5.763.
Now subtract the discount amount from the regular price: $57.63 - $5.763 = $51.867.
Round this answer to the nearest cent: $57.53.
So the correct answer is D. $57.53.
4. To find the sale price, you need to multiply the regular price by the percentage of discount, and then subtract it from the regular price.
In this case, the regular price is $56.00 and the discount percentage is 40%.
Multiply the regular price by the discount percentage: $56.00 * 0.4 = $22.40.
Now subtract the discount amount from the regular price: $56.00 - $22.40 = $33.60.
Round this answer to the nearest cent: $33.60.
So the correct answer is D. $33.60.
