The buyer for the women’s sweater department has purchased wool sweaters for $35.69. She uses an odd pricing policy and wants to sell them at a 49-percent markup on selling price. At what price should each sweater be sold?
Ans $ 69.98
LET THE SELLING PRICE BE X
COST + MARKUP ON SELLING PRICE = SELLING PRICE
35.69 + 49% OF X = X
35.69 + 0.49X = X
X - 0.49X = 35.69
0.51X = 35.69
X = 35.69 / 0.51
X = $ 69.98
