1) The original price is 8920 2) The mark up is 580
Step-by-step explanation:
!)We need to find out the initial price, suppose it is equal to 100 percents. The price was raised and it has reached 100+6.5= 106.5 percents . 106.5 percents from initial price is the new price (RM 9500). Find out the value of one percent
9500:106.5= 89.2 (approximately).
2)Then find the original price multiplying the value of percent by 100. 89.2*100= 8920 - initial price
3)Then mark up is a remainder between old price and new price . It is 9500-8920= 580.
