Question 2 • DAEP - Math 7 A (20 DAY TERM)

What is the retail price of a couch at a furniture store that has a wholesale price of $115 and is marked up by 75 percent?

Answer
A
$86.25
B
$190.00
C
$201.25
D
$316.25

Explanation

A 75% markup means adding 75% of the wholesale price to that price. The markup is $115 × 0.75 = $86.25, so the retail price is $115 + $86.25 = $201.25. The correct choice is $201.25.
