would you multiply 85/1 by .06/1? how would you solve this? Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! multiplying by .06 will give you the amount of the increase , which you can add to the original price
to do it in one step , factor in 100% of the original price
the new price is 106% of the original
