If a pair of jeans costs you $17.00, but you decide to mark them up 35 percent and sell them to someone else, the markup would be what amount? What would be your selling price? If you decided to reduce the markup price by 15 percent, what would be your selling price?

No offense but why would anyone want to buy them from you when the price that your paying is even more than they can go to Walmart and buy them ?

Can't you multiply and divide?!?!?!?!?!?
17.00 times .35 gives you your markup. 17.00 times 1.35 gives you the marked up price. 17.00 times .85 gives you a 15% discount.

17*0.35=5.95
17+5.95=22.95
17*0.15=2.55
17-2.55=14.45
