Answer:
$1217.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Purchased Price = $900
He wants to see if at a profit of 15%.
Profit = 15% of $900
Profit = 0.15 x $900
Profit = $135
Find the selling Price with the profit
Selling Price with profit = $900 + $135
Selling Price with profit = $1035
He wants to give discount of 15%
Price after discount = 100% - 85%
Price after discount = 85%
Find the marked price:
85% = $1035
1% = $1035 ÷ 85 = $12.1765
100% = 12.1765 x 100 = $1217.65 (nearest dollar)
Answer: The marked price of the jean is $1217.65
