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

Respuesta :

Answer: $397.9

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find 65% and 8% of 230

(230 x 65) / 100 = 149.5

65% of 230 is 149.5

(230 x 8) / 100 = 18.4

8% of 230 is 18.4

Add 230 to the 65% and 8% markups to get the total retail cost

230 + 149.5 + 18.4 = 397.9

The total retail cost of the tent it $397.9
