$15 to $18 per sq.ft. retail price, contractors about 15% less
You do one of two things. Take the original price, multiply it by .15, and then subtract the result from the original. Or you can multiply the original by .85 (1.00-.15) and get the reduced price immediately.
If it was a 15 dollar discount, the original price was 60.00+15=75.00 dollars.If it was a 15 percent discount, the original price was $70.59 as followsoriginalprice - originalprice *.15 = salepriceoriginalprice * (1-.15) = saleproceoriginalprice = saleprice / (1-.15)originalprice = 60.00 / .85originalprice is 70.588 or 70.59 dollars
If you received a 15 per cent discount, you paid 100-15 = 85 per cent of the original price. And this was the 545.28. So the question can be re-stated as: if 85% is 545.28 what is 100% ? and the answer is 545.28/85*100 = 641.51
15 % of 47.60 would make the sale price $40.46.
The selling price would be 17.25 if it cost 15 and the percent of markup is 15.
To find the percentage of one number in relation to another number then divide the relative number (in this case 15) by the base number (in this case 35) and multiply the result by 100.The markup is 15 units based on an original purchase price of 35 units.The percentage markup is thus 100 x 15/35 = 42.86% (2dp)
To take a percentage of a price, multiply the price by the decimal equivalent of the percentage, which is the percentage divided by 100. 25 percent of $15.00 = 15 x 0.25 = $3.75 To add a percentage to a price, you can either add that number to the original price ($15.00 + $3.75 = $18.75) or multiply the original price by the decimal equivalent of 100 percent plus the discount. (15 x 1.25 = $18.75)
Original price - discount = new price Original price - (Original price x 0.15) = 18.00 Which can be written as: 1 Original price - 0.15 Original price = 18.00 Which can be written as: 0.85 Original price = 18.00 Wich can be written as: Original price = 18.00 / 0.85 Original price = 21.18 Note that since there is 15% off in the original price, the new price is essentially (100% - 15%) = 85% of the original price.
You seem to be saying that 15% off gives a discounted price of 680, and asking what the original price was before the discount. Since the price was discounted by 15%, the discounted price is 85% of the original price. Dividing 680 by 0.85 gives 800 as the original price.
The original price is 250. After you mark it down 15%, the new price is 212.50 .
Here's how to find out. Take the markup percentage (15, in your example) and move the decimal two places to the left. Then write a 1 to the left of the decimal, so you get 1.15...or 1.38, 1.75 or whatever the markup is. Divide the price by that number, and you have it.
The original price was 34.20
15 million
p=wholesale price, m=markup p*m*(1-.15)=p*1.19 m*.85=1.19 m=1.19/.85=1.40 His markup must be at least 40%.
The original price was 360.00
The original price was $60, and 15% off drops that to $51.
