Ajunior one day admission to an amusement park is $28. this price is increased by 60% for adults. find the mark up and the adult price

The mark up is $16.8

The adult price is $44.8

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The mark up is the the amount of increasing in percentage

- If the original amount is known and the percentage markup is

 known, then the final amount is the original amount plus the

 amount of markup

* Lets solve the problem

- A junior one day admission to an amusement park is $28

- This price is increased by 60% for adults

- They ask for the markup and the adult price

∵ The mark up is the amount of increasing

∵ The junior admission is $28

∵ The adult admission is 60% more the junior admission

∴ The mark up is 60% of the junior admission

∵ 60% = 60/100 = 0.6

∴ The mark up = 0.6 × 28 = 16.8

∴ The mark up is $16.8

∵ The adult price = junior price + mark up amount

∵ The junior price = $28

∵ The mark up = $16.8

∴ The adult price = 28 + 16.8 = 44.8

∴ The adult price is $44.8
