Answer 2

Answer:

$57.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that original price of an item is $65 and it is marked down by 12%.

To find the the retail price we need to figure out 88% of 65 as 100%-12%=88%.

$\text{The retail price of the item}=\frac{88}{100}\times\ 65$

$\text{The retail price of the item}=0.88\times\ 65$

$\text{The retail price of the item}=\ 57.20$

Therefore, the retail price of the item will be $57.20.
