  1. A
    $24.00\$24.00
  2. $104.00\$104.00Cevap
  3. C
    $110.00\$110.00
  4. D
    $82.40\$82.40

Cevap

$104.00\$104.00
The correct answer accurately calculates the 30%30\% markup as $24.00\$24.00 ($80.00×0.30\$80.00 \times 0.30) and correctly adds this markup to the original wholesale cost ($80.00+$24.00\$80.00 + \$24.00) to reach the final retail price of $104.00\$104.00.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the markup amount by finding 30%30\% of the wholesale cost.
$80.00×0.30=$24.00\$80.00 \times 0.30 = \$24.00
The markup is a percentage of the original wholesale cost, which must be converted to a dollar amount.
2
Add the markup amount to the original wholesale cost to find the retail selling price.
$80.00+$24.00=$104.00\$80.00 + \$24.00 = \$104.00
The retail selling price is the sum of the wholesale cost and the markup.

Anahtar Kavram

Calculating a percentage of a quantity and adding it to the original value to determine a final marked-up price.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of calculating the markup and adding it to the wholesale cost, you can multiply the wholesale cost directly by 1.301.30 (which represents the 100%100\% original cost plus the 30%30\% markup). Thus, $80.00×1.30=$104.00\$80.00 \times 1.30 = \$104.00.
