Answer:

A) The original price of music player is $170.66

B) If the item was marked up by 1/2 before it was placed on the sales floor, what was that the store paid for the digital player.?

Step-by-step explanation:

A)you would divide $128 by 4, getting $32. then add that to the original price, being $160.

B) you would divide $160 by 2, getting $80, then add those two together in order to find what it was marked up to, being $240. hopefully this helps
