Question

If i have a pay rate of $21.00 and marked up 78.7% and made a 10% profit. how did i get $41.28?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of pay rate =$21

If she marked up by 78.7% , so it becomes

$78.7\%\text{ of}\ 21\\\\=\frac{78.7}{100}\times \ 21\\\\=\ 16.527$

So, our amount for pay rate becomes

$21+16.527\\\\=\ 37.527$

Now, he said he made a profit of 10%,so it becomes

$10\%\text{ of }37.527\\\\=\frac{10}{100}\times 32.527\\\\=\ 3.7527$

So, our new pay rate becomes

$37.527+3.7527\\\\=\ 41.2797$

This is the step through which we can get $41.28.
