Question

the markup on a restaurant meal is 250 per cent. a meal cost $7.30 to produce. how much will the customer be charged before tax and tips

Answer 1

Ok, so:

Given that the markup on a restaurant meal is 250% and a meal costs $7.30 to produce.

We are going to find the amount of money that a customer be charged before tax and tip.

So, for this, we do the following:

= 250% * (7.30).

= (250)/100 * (7.30)

= 2.5 * 7.30

= $18.25

Then, the amount of money that a customer be carged before tax and tip is the sum of the last result and $7.30.

This is $7.30 + $18.25, which is $25.55
