What is the final price of the tablet computer after it is marked up?

A. $56.91
B. $132.78
C. $219.69
D. $246.60

Answer 1

B 132.78
0.30x189.69=56.907
56.907-189.69= $132.78

Answer 2

The correct answer is D. $246.6
(It is actually $246.597 but that is rounded to 246.6)
$189.69 x .3 = 56.907
$189.69 + $56.907 = $246.597
