Question

A pair of shoes has been marked up by 65%. If the original price was $40.00, what is the new price?

Answer 1

Answer:

First we need to see how many times 65% will make the price go up by 100%. We can see this by dividing 100 by 65. 100 divided by 65 is 1.53846153846. Now we can multiply 40 by 1.53846153846 and see what we get. 40x1.53846153846=$61.5384615384.
