Joseph wants to buy a new tennis

racquet which costs $200 from the

factory. The sports shop marks up the

price by 60%. Joseph bought the

racquet when the shop had a 25% off

sale. How much profit

did the shop make?

The shop made a profit about $40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, According to the question We know that:

The shop marked the $200 price up by 60%.

60% of $200 is = $120.

Now, the price is = $320 because, 200 + 120 = 320.

Joseph bought the tennis racket at 25% off.

25% of $320 is = $80.

Now, the discount price is = $240 Because, 320 - 80 = 240.

So, Joseph bought the racket for = $240.

Now we know that the original price from the factory was $200.

Joseph bought it for $240.
