Q. A store pays

\$89

for a rocking chair. The store marks up the price by

30\%

. What is the new price?

\newline

\$

_____

Calculate Markup Amount: Step $1$ : Calculate the markup amount. $\newline$ Markup percentage = $30\%$ $\newline$ Purchase price = $\$89$ $\newline$ Markup amount = Purchase price $\times$ Markup percentage $\newline$ Calculation: $\$89 \times 0.30 = \$26.70$
Add Markup to Purchase Price: Step $2$ : Add the markup amount to the original purchase price to find the new price. $\newline$ Original price = $\$89$ $\newline$ Markup amount = $\$26.70$ $\newline$ New price = Original price + Markup amount $\newline$ Calculation: $\$89 + \$26.70 = \$115.70$
