Sagot :

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage markup do the boutiques charge their customer is 150%

Given as :

The price for hand woven scarves = $ 10

The price of selling by  boutiques to customers = $ 25

Let The markup percentage = x

So ,  markup percentage =  × 100

Here The value of selling price ( S.P ) = $ 25

And   The value of cost price  ( C .P ) = $ 10

So ,  x =  × 100

Or ,  x =   × 100

Or,   x =  × 100

Or,   x = 1.5 × 100

∴    Markup = 150% of cost of sales

Hence The percentage markup do the boutiques charge their customer is 150%    Answer
