We know that:
The markup is the price added to the cost price of goods...
To find the markup, we must multiply the percent increase by the original price (before markup).
So:
10,000 x 5% (or 0.05) = ?
10,000 (You do not have to follow my way of multiplying, do what is comfortable for u)
x 5 (Ignore the decimals then we move it after we get the answer)
----------
50,000 move the decimal back 2 places so it is 500
The final answer is:
The markup amount is $500...
Answer:
h = 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
h + 3h + 4h = 100
Combine like terms: h + 3h = 4h
4h + 4h = 100
Combine like terms: 4h + 4h = 8h
8h = 100
Solving
8h = 100
Solving for variable 'h'.
Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right.
Divide each side by '8'.
h = 12.5
Simplifying
h = 12.5
