Cost price is $684.62

Given:
Sales price = $890
Mark-up on cost price = 30%
Cost Price = ?

The sales price includes the 30% mark-up on cost price. This means that the cost price is the 100% and the Sales price is 130% of the cost price. To get the cost price, we need to divide the sales price by its percentage.

Sales price : 130% $890
Cost price 100%
Mark-up on cost 30%

890 ÷ 130% = 684.62

to check:
684.62 * 30% = 205.39
684.62 + 205.38 = 890

If you would like to calculate the cost price, you can do this using the following steps:

100% + 30% = 130%

130% of x is $890
130% * x = 890
130/100 * x = 890 /*100/130
x = 890 * 100 / 130
x = $684.62

Result: The cost price was $684.62.

How do you solve thus ? 8=8v-4(v+8)

Harrizon [31]

8 = 8v - 4 (v + 8)

Distribute the 4 through the parentheses

8 = 8v - 4v - 32

combine like terms

8 = 4v - 32

add 32 to both sides

8 + 32 = 4v -32 + 32

combine like terms

40 = 4v

divide each side by 4

40/10 = v

4 = v

v= 4
