Answer 1

Answer:

The retail price of the painting is  $12750 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A gallery owner purchased a very old painting for $3,000.

The painting sells at a 325% increase in price .

325% is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{325}{100}$

= 3.25

Increase in the prize= 3.25 × 3000

                                 = $9750

Retail price of the painting = Purchased cost of painting + Increase in the prize

                                            = $9750 + $3000

                                            = $12750

Therefore the retail price of the painting is  $12750 .

Answer 2

300%= 9,000
20%= 60
5%= 15

9,000+60+15= 9,075
answer: £9,075
