Question

Candice, a sign maker for a store, makes a sign advertising kites for sale at a price of $45 each. However, the kites only cost the store $36 each. What percentage is the mark-up?

Answer 1

The mark up, even after the sale is 25%.

Explanation:

In order to find the mark up, you divide the cost by the sale price. Then multiply by 100.

cost/sale * 100 = %

36/45 * 100 = 25%
