%. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The percent markup is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent markup:

The percent markup is given by the difference in selling price and buying price multiplied by 100% and divided by the buying price.

A department store buys 400 shirts at a cost of $9,600

This means that the buying price is:

$9600/400 = $24

Find the percent markup.

Buying price: $24

Selling price: $30

30 - 24 = 6

6*100%/24 = 25%

The percent markup is 25%.
