ok

amistre64 · Answer

add 12.3% of the cost, back to the cost ...

amistre64 · Answer

percents are just a division by 100

for a given number n,  1% is equal to n/100

to find say, 12%, we want to know the value of 12 times n/100

amistre64 · Answer

they give us:

57,915

1% = 57,915/100

12.3% = 12.3 * 57,915/100

just add that amount back into 57,915
