a store bought a pair of pants for 50$ and it sold for 80$
A.what percent was the markup?
B. if a shirt that cost 28 is on sale for 25% what is the new price of the shirt
(show work for both)

Respuesta :

A. 60%, because 10 % of $50 is $5. Therefore, the difference is 30 from 80-50.

Meaning there was $30 increase.

30/5 = 6*10= 60

Therefore it is 60%.

B. 10% of 28 is 2.8, so take that multiple 2.8 by 2.5 times which you will get $7,

From there add 7 + 28 and you will get 35.

So the price of the new shirt is $35.
