If the price is $ 100. then the selling price will be $ 150. ( increase of 50%)

If the price is $ 140. then the selling price will be

= $ 140 xX 150 / 100

= $ 210

Original amount=$140.00
Increase=50% x $140.00= $70.00
New amount= original amount + increase
= $140.00 + $70.00
= $210.00

Hope you can do better in ur maths!
