A store owner paid $26.00 for a jacket. The owner marked up the price of the jacket by 73% and then sold the jacket. What was the selling price of the jacket?

$44.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The jacket's original price of $26 is considered 100% of the price. So, if the jacket's price was marked up 73% more than the original price, then we can add these percentages together. This means that the jacket was sold for a total of 173% of the original price.

So, to solve the problem you must find 173% of 26. To find the percentage of any number you can use multiplication by the decimal form. To do this you must first turn the percent into a decimal. Do this by moving the decimal point 2 spaces to the left (or divide by 100). This means that 173% = 1.73

Then, the final step is to multiply 26*1.73. This equals $44.98 which is the final price of the jacket.

The area of a circle is:

Radius is equal to one half of the diameter
So the radius of the mirror is 6 inches
Now you can just plug this into the equation: 6 squared is 36, times pi
or if you multiply the pi in: 113.097 inches squared!
