b. The owner increases the sale price by the same percent that you found in part a when he buys
jackets for $25 and sells them. How many jackets must the owner buy for the total jacket sales to be
at least $260? Explain your answer.
The owner must buy jacket(s).


Answer :

Based on the information given, it can be noted that the number of jackets that will be bought will be 10 jackets.

Solving percentages.

Your information is incomplete as you didn't provide the part A. Therefore, an overview will be given. Let's assume that the percentage that you calculated earlier was 10%.

This will be added to $25 and this will be:

= $25 + (10% × $25)

= $25 + $2.50

= $27.50

Therefore, the number of jackets that the owner must buy for the total jacket sales to be at least $260 will be:

= 260/27.50

= 9.5

= 10 approximately.
