You calculate the markup or markdown in absolute terms (you find by how much the quantity changed), and then you calculate the percent change relative to the original value. So they're really just another form of "increase - decrease" exercises.
Example:
A computer software retailer used a markup rate of 40%. Find the selling price of a computer game that cost the retailer $25.
The markup is 40% of the $25 cost, so the markup is:
(0.40)(25) = 10
Then the selling price, being the cost plus markup, is:
25 + 10 = 35
The item sold for $35.
Answer:
±1, ±2, ±3, ±6
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the great sequence.
40÷5= 8 You have to see how many time 5 can go into 40
1. see how many times 5 goes into 4 none so the first number is 0
2. then you see how many time 5 can go into 0 o times
3. so you have to see how many time you can count 5 into 40
(count by 5's) 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40 that should be 8 times total!
Hi
7 = 14.70
15= X
so : X = 15*14.70 /7 = 31.5
15 liters of petrol cost 31.5
