Question

3. Mrs. Sinclair is finding the selling price of a pair of $40

skates with a 30% markup. Find her mistakes and correct it.

Answer 1

Selling price : $52

Explanation:

First, find 30% out of 40.

x= (40)(30)=1200/ 100= 12

x=12

Add 30% to the original selling price.

So then you add $12 to $40 to get $52.
