how much is 15% added to $10.40?

Answer 1

to do this:

multiply: 10.40 * .15 = 1.56 to get 15% of 10.40

then add: 10.40 + 1.56 = 11.96

Answer 2

10% of 10.40 = $1.04 ... 5% of 1.04 = .52 ... add 1.04 + .52 = 1.56 ... now add 10.40 + 1.56 = $11.96 ...

In practical terms if you have an item selling for $10.40 and wanted to get a 15% profit then you'd mark up the item an additional $1.56 to bring the new price to $11.96. Or if you received a 15% bonus from a normal pay rate = $10.40 you'd get $11.96.
