A price markup is an increase in the price the dealer sells that he ensures in order to gain guaranteed profit. If the markup is 20%, this means that he added 20% of what he paid for the car, and used this price for sale. Therefore, we let x be the price the dealer paid for the car.

$5999 = x + 0.2x = 1.2x
x = $4999

Thus, the dealer paid $4999 originally for the car.

How does an investor get ownership interest in a company
viva [34]

I believe the answer is:  by purchasing shares of the company

By purchasing a certain amount of shares, that investor automatically became part-owner of the company. For majority of companies, every 4 months, the company would announce the amount of dividend that they will give to the share owners. The amount of dividend that the owners receive would be according to the percentage of shares that they own.
