Find out  the selling price.

To prove

As given

A store manager instructs his employees to mark up all the items by 25%. An item that the store bought for $16.

25% is written in the decimal form.

= 0.25

25% of the $16= 0.25 × 16

                         = $4

Selling price of the item = Original price of item + 25% of the $16

                                       = $16 + $4

                                      = $ 20

Therefore the selling price of the item is $20.

35x 3= 105

step-by-step explanation:

35+35= 70   70 + 35= 105

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
