Question

Nicole wants to buy a pair of jeans. The original cost of the jeans is $42.50 and he markup is 10 percent. How much will she have to pay for the jeans ?

Answer 1

She'll have to pay $46.75

Explanation:

42.50 divided by 10% is 425 which equals $4.25. 42.50 + 4.25 = 46.75

42.50 + 10% = 46.75. So therefore you can check your answer twice and it will be the same answer.
