A store owner wants a markup of 25% on the selling price of good. If the selling price is $8.99 per dozen donuts, what is the most the store owner should pay per dozen?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it $2.25??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to increase a number by \(25\%\) multiply it by \(100\%+25\%=125\%=1.25\) you know \[1.25C=8.99\] solve for \(C\) by computing \[8.99\div 1.25\]

So $7.19?
