Tennis racket marked up 50% to $36.75
Convert 50% to Decimal 0.5 Then add 1 because it is a mark up Then Divide 36.75 by 1.5 and you should get $24.50
Math genius is correct itβs $24.50
literally how do you do this i dont get math
24.50 π₯ ..π₯ ..π₯ ..π₯ ..
If the racket was marked UP, then it started at a lower price.
To understand how to calculate the original price of the tennis racket before the 50% markup, we need to reverse-engineer the calculation.
Let's assume the original price of the tennis racket is X dollars.
When the racket is marked up by 50%, it means the price is increased by 50% of X. Mathematically, it can be represented as:
New Price = Original Price + (50% of Original Price)
In this case, the new price is $36.75, so we can write the equation as:
$36.75 = X + 0.5X
Simplifying the equation, we get:
$36.75 = 1.5X
Now, we can solve for X by dividing both sides of the equation by 1.5:
X = $36.75 / 1.5
Using a calculator, the original price comes out to be $24.50.
Therefore, the original price of the tennis racket before the 50% markup was $24.50.
peepee
no you stupid
oh she stupid, oh you stupid, oh ye all stupid except me!
Convert the percent to a decimal.
50% -> .50
Multiply 36.75 by .50
36.75 * .50 = 18.375
Add 18.375 to 36.75
$55.125 is your answer
