Question

A hat cost $18. The store owner marks up the price 15% in order to earn a profile. What is the amount of the markup?

Answer 1

You need to multiply $2.70 cents is the answer. But with the markup, the price is $20.70

Explanation:

You take the dollar amount, 18.00, and then multiply it by the percent, which we move the decimal since we are turning it into a decimal, since it is 15 we move the decimal two spots which makes it, 0.15.

Answer 2

The markup is 20.7 added along with 18, but the markup without the original price added is 2.7
