Answer    

Find out  the selling price.

To prove

As given

A store manager instructs his employees to mark up all the items by 30%. An item that the store bought for $27.

30% is written in the decimal form.

= 0.30

30% of the $27 = 0.30 × 27

                          = $8.1

Selling price of the item = Original price of item + 30% of the $27

                                        = $27 + $8.1

                                       = $ 35.1

Therefore the selling price of the item is $35.1 .
