If markup is 60% of the cost, you have
... markup = 0.60×cost
... markup/0.60 = cost
... $207.20/0.60 = cost = $345.33
_____
If markup is 60% of the selling price, the other 40% is the cost. So, the cost is 40/60 = 2/3 of the markup.
... cost = (2/3)×markup = (2/3)×$207.20
... cost = $138.13
_____
Markup can be specified in terms of either selling price or cost. Those are the usual reference values; there could be others. When only the percentage is given, you don't have enough information to work the problem. You need to know what it is a percentage of. (Example problems in your text may tell you the expected interpretation.)
Answer:
This theorem states that 'if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent. ' This is kind of like the SAS, or side-angle-side postulate. But SAS requires you to know two sides and the included angle.

Answer:
17,18
Step-by-step explanation:
let the smaller integer be "a" and the larger be "b"
Then 2b = 3a -15 ........................equ 1
but they are consecutive integers, b= a+1 ; substitute b into equ 1,thus,
2(a+1) = 3a - 15
2a + 2 = 3a-15
collect like terms,
2+15 =3a-2a
17 = a
b= a+1
b = 17+1
b=18.
The integers are 17,18
