Answer: The manager sold the book shelf at $235.2

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Wholesale price of the book shelf = $147.00

But Gabriela's Furniture Store marks up all furniture by 60%.

So, Mark up value is given by


(60)/(100)* 147\\\\=(8820)/(100)\\\\=\$88.2

So, the new price that the manager sold the book shelf is given by


147+88.2\\\\=\$235.2

Hence, the manager sold the book shelf at $235.2
