Question

A store bought a tent for $230 and marked it up 65% The store sells the tent with the 8% tax what is the total cost of the tent

Answer 1

$409.86

Explanation:

To find the price after marking it up, 230 x 0.65 = 149.5

230 + 149.5 = 379.5

Usually we add tax after the discount/markup.

379.5 x 0.08 = 30.36

379.5 + 30.36 = $409.86

Hope this helps!
