Question

Caleb, a sign maker for a store , makes a sign advertising televisions for sale at a price of $298 each. However, the televisions only cost the store $100 each. What is the mark-up, as a percentage?

Answer 1

198%

Explanation:

Profit/cost*100%

298-100= 198

198/100=1.98

1.98 is the decimal so, you multiply it by 100 to get 198%
