Answer 6

thw owner of a pizza parlor wants to make a profit of 55% of the cost for each pizza sold. if it costs $8 to make a pizza, what price should it be sold?

Answer 7

So this time, the original cost is $8. So the change is 55% but it's increasing instead of decreasing! So for that to happen, the price is 155%.

8 x 1.55 = $12.40
