    Step-by-step explanation:

    selling price = original price + markup

    Profit = selling price - original price

    markup = original price * markup percent

    We notice the markup is the profit

    Substitute in what we know

    24 = original price *.30

    Divide each side by. 30

    24/.30 = original price *.30/.30

    80 = original price

    But we want the selling price

    selling price = original price + markup

    =80+24

    = 104
