Answer 1

Answer:

Your answer will be C. $5.79.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this answer, you have to take the original price (3.99) and multiply it by the mark up (45%)

3.99x0.45=1.79

Then, you add 3.99 and 1.79 to get your final answer.

3.99 + 1.79 = 5.78

The answer is off by one penny, BUT, it's tricky to get it exact when you're working with decimals and percentages.
