Answer:

180%

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = percent of markup

102.56/56.98 = x/100

Cross multiply

102.56 × 100 = 56.98 × x

10,256 = 56.98x

Divide both sides by 56.98:

179.99297.... = x

Round to nearest whole number:

180 = x

Check your work:

56.98 × 180%

Convert the percentage into a decimal:

56.98 × 1.80

102.564

Round to nearest cent:

102.56

Correct!

Randy buys a pair of shoes that were originally priced at $147. He receives a 35% discount and pays 8.5% sales tax. How much doe
maksim [4K]
Begin by subtracting 35% from 100%, giving 65% which is equivalent to 0.65
Then multiply
147 * 0.67 =  98.49
Now for a sales tax you would want to multiply by 108.5% (or 1.085) as you are paying the previous price and them some
98.49 * 1.085 = <span>106.86165
You can round to the second decimal place since you can't have a monetary value less than a penny
your answer would be $106.86
