    So from 75 to 80 and 75 is 100%

    80-75=5

    5 is x% of 75

    x%=percent markup

    5=x% times 75

    % means parts out of 100 so

    x%=x/100

    5=x/100 times 75

    5=75x/100

    75x/100=75/100 times x

    75/100=3/4

    5=3/4x

    multiply both sides by 4/3

    20/3=x

    6.6666%

    the percent mark up is 6.6666%
