Answer:

a. $49

b. $74.28

c. No

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The store price is

= Purchase price + markup

= $35 + $35 × 40%

= $35 + $14

= $49

b. The price paid is

Since there is a markup of 40% and when it is added to 100% of cost so the selling price is 140% of the cost or 1.40 of the cost

Now the price paid is

$104 = 1.40 × cost

So, the cost is

= $104 ÷ 1.40

= $74.28

c. Now the markup is

= $100 - $75

= $25

The markup percentage is

= $25 ÷ $75

= 33.33%

No the store does not markup the price by 40%

The odds of drawing an even chip are \frac{2}{5}.

The odds of drawing an odd chip are \frac{3}{5}.

You multiply the two \frac{2}{5} x  \frac{3}{5} =  \frac{6}{25}.

Knowing you cannot simplify 6/25 any further, you now have your answer!
