I've answered other questions like this but this one just keeps coming up wrong. Anita Alvarez sells clothing for Toddler’s Shop. Baby blankets sell for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not a complete question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That was my thought.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They actually asked a question that isnt complete? or did you copy it wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It got cut off.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anita Alvarez sells clothing for Toddler’s Shop. Baby blankets sell for $29.99 after a markup rate based on cost of 109%. Find the markup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there a 32.68 choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait what????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a fill in but that wouldn't make sense.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is freaking confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's irritating.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you asking what is the original price before the the price went up? or how much did it went up?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like, how can you mark something up 109%...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Either one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well whatever the orginal price is has been marked up 109% but what I thought the original price was turned out to be wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

27.51 = price before markup 2.48 = mark up price

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That was my answer but I guess that was incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

both are wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, the price before markup isn't 27.51 i guess.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

27.51 to 29.99 is a 9% markup in these problems.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea what to do then. Sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for your help though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem. hope you find the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's 15.78.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did that number happen?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oops I meant 14.35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not sure how you got that number, but it might be right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to give it a go.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The markup is 15.64, what an ordeal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the cost before markup is 14.35
