Question

A store pays $2 per pound for popcorn kernels. One cubic foot of kernels weighs about 45 pounds. What is the selling price of the container shown when the markup is 30%?

Answer 1

It would be 117 because 45x2 is 90 and 30% of 90 is 27 so 90+27 is 117

Answer 2

117 is the correct answer.
