the markup on candy at the discount store is 45%. a bag of candy has a wholesale cost of $1.15. what will be the retail price for the candy?

a. $1.45
b. $1.60
c. $1.67
d. $1.78

Option C. $1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a bag of candy at wholesale = $1.15

The markup on candy at the discount store = 45%

The retail price for the candy = 1.15 +(45% × 1.15)

                                                = 1.15 + (×1.15)

                                               = 1.15 + (0.45 × 1.15)

                                               = 1.15 + 0.5175

                                               = 1.6675 ≈ $1.67

The retail price for the candy would be $1.67.

the answer is 3/5

step-by-step explanation:

first divide 24 divided by 8 because that is the least common multiple

then divide 40 by 8

then you will get 3/5.
