    15,75 - 100 %

    100 % = 100/100 = 1

    Then every number multiplied by 1 is 100 % of itself.

    If the book was marked up 65% of what is was before, it makes a price of 165% when compared to the original.

    165% = 165 / 100 = 1,65

    15,75. 1,65 = 25,9875

    25,99 is the nearest option.

    a) 25,99
