Answer:

Explanation:

Here's the complete question:

It cost Nike $55.00 to make the Kyrie 5, but it is selling for $130.19. Calculate the markup/percent Increase for the shoe. On Amazon, you found the same shoe for $108. What is the percent difference between the price of the original shoe and the price of the amazon shoe

The percentage Increase of the shoe will be:

= Selling price - Cost/ Cost × 100

= (130.19 - 55.00) / 55.00 × 100

= 75.19 / 55.00 × 100

= 136.71%

The percent difference between the price of the original shoe and the price of the amazon shoe will be:

= (130.19 - 108)/130.19 × 100

= (22.19 / 130.19) × 100

= 17%
