Answer: B, $4.41 per shirt
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure this out you want to first take the 200 shirts and multiply them by the cost of $2.80. This gives you a total of $560, without tax. The tax is 5%, so you want to take 560 and multiply it by .05 to find the amount of tax. This leaves you with $28 of taxes. Add that onto the already cost of $560, and it gives you a grand total of $588. She wants to sell the shirts with a 150% markup, so all you do is first find what Michelle really paid for each shirt with tax. Take the total cost of 588 and divide it by the number of total shirts which is 200. 588/200=$2.94 per shirt that Michelle paid. Times that by 1.5% and you get $4.41 per shirt that Michelle is selling.
