You have to pay $32.65 for an item after a 25% markup. what was the original price?

26.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price plus the markup equals the new price

The markup  is equal to the original price times 25%

original price + original price * 25% = new price

Factor out the original price

original price (1+25%) = new price

Changing to decimal form

original price (1+.25) = new price

original price (1.25) = new price

Divide each side by 1.25

original price (1.25)/1.25 = new price/1.25

original price = new price/1.25

The new price is 32.65

original price = 32.65/1.25

original price =26.12

468

step-by-step explanation:

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
