Markup - another name for percent increase
To make a profit, stores mark up the prices on items they sell. A sports store buys skateboards from their supplier for $35. They then mark them up 42%. What is the retail price? Vocabulary: Retail price – price sold to public (NEW PRICE) Wholesale price – price purchased from supplier (ORIGINAL PRICE)

Think of what you know: 42% - that is the percent $35 – that is the original price So plug those numbers in. That means you’re going to find the amount that the price will be changed.

= = To make a profit, stores mark up the prices on items they sell. A sports store buys skateboards from their supplier for $35. They then mark them up 42%. What is the retail price? Cross multiply 100x = (35)(42) x = (because we’re dealing with money I put the 0 in the hundredths place)

= = To make a profit, stores mark up the prices on items they sell. A sports store buys skateboards from their supplier for $35. They then mark them up 42%. What is the retail price? x = Is this your answer? No – because they ask the retail price – new price. You have the markup (change). So if it was $35 and you marked up $14.70 – the retail price would be $49.70
