So he paid 200... and then he marked it up 40%....200* 1.4 = 280 and then he offered a 25% discount...meaning u pay 75%.. 0.75(280) = 210 <== the price it is sold at
First find 40% of how much he paid: 200·0.4=80 Add the mark up and the original cost: 200+80=280 Now we need to find the discount on the new price so multiply 25% by the new price: 280·0.25=70 Now the sale price is the new cost minus the discount: 280-70=210 The jacket sold for $210 :))
To change 5/6 to a fraction with a denominator of 12, you need to do one step. Since 12 is a multiple of 6 (meaning that it can be multiplied by 6 and another number), you multiply 5/6 by 2 to get 10/12. 10/12 is your answer.
