I refuse to do your homework for you. As assistance though, I'm hoping to give you enough information to figure it out yourself. What is 10% of 100?
Hint:
How many dimes does it take to make a dollar?
Once you figure out what 10% of 100 is, you should be able to figure out what 10% of $130 is right?
Once you do that, you should be able to figure out what 120% of $130 is. Cheers

You need to work out what 120% of $130 is - using a calculator, you will come up with 156. This is the increase in price, so you add 156 to 130, and come up with a sale price of $286.
For the answer of $156, this is only a 20% increase.

the answer is 156
you know that 100% of 130 is 130
so the equation is
130(.2)=price
they would need to sell the dress for $156 dollars for a 120% profit

120% of 130 will be
100=130
120?
120 x 130= 15600/100=156+130=$286
The price will be $286 to earn the profit of 120%
