Answer:
195
Step-by-step explanation:
I would tackle this question with cross multiplying.
x 65
--- = ------
300 100
The 300 is the price the customer will pay and x is the amount Jill bought it for. Because Jill wants a 35% markup, that means she is willing to pay 65% what her customers will pay (100-35=65). so we put the 65 over 100 on the other side of the equals sign and cross multiply it out.
100x=19500
Divide both sides by 100 and you get
x=$195
So your answer is: The most Jill Roe can pay for a bedspread is $195.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+8-3x=-10
2x+8= -10
2x=-10-8
2x=-18
therefore x= -9
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
A) you need to do 2+3=5 then divide £20 by 5 which equals 4, the ratio is 2:3 so you do 4x2 which equals 8 then you do 4x3=12. So your answer would be 8:12
