60% markup to get the selling price. To the nearest dollar, what was the selling price for one camera?

Answer 1

To calculate the selling price of the cameras, we first need to determine the markup amount and then add it to the cost price.

1. Cost Price: $C=65$ dollars
2. Markup Percentage: $M=60$

The markup amount can be calculated as:

$$\text{Markup Amount}=C\times \frac{M}{100}=65\times \frac{60}{100}=65\times 0.6=39$$

Now, we add the markup amount to the cost price to get the selling price:

$$\text{Selling Price}=C+\text{Markup Amount}=65+39=104$$

Thus, the selling price for one camera, rounded to the nearest dollar, is $\boxed{{\displaystyle 104}}$.
