If the hat is at a 55% markup, then the retail price is 1.55 * original price($16)
1.55*16 = $24.80
1.55*16 = $24.80
Answer: Hence, the retail price of that hat is $24.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Original price of the hat = $16
Rate of mark up = 55%
So,Amount of mark up would be
[tex]\dfrac{55}{100}\times 16\\\\=0.55\times 16\\\\=\$8.8[/tex]
So, the retail price of that hat would be
[tex]\$16+\$8.8\\\\=\$24.8[/tex]
Hence, the retail price of that hat is $24.8.
