Question

A store sells an outfit that consists of a shirt, a tie, and a pair of pants. The store purchases the shirt for $18, the tie for $12, and the pants for $35. The percent of markup is 22%. Find the selling price of the outfit.

Answer 1

Answer:The selling price of the outfit is $79.3

Explanation:

18 + 12 + 35 = $65

65* 22% = 14.3

14.3 + 65 = $79.3

or

100% + 22% = 122%

122% of 65

1.22 * 65 = 79.3
