Question 729578: Amanda is a manager at a local jewelry store. When a customer purchases a diamond engagement ring, Amanda also suggests purchasing a pearl necklace as a gift for the fiancé’s mother. As a courtesy, Amanda discounts the necklace by 35% off of the original selling price. From the cost, the engagement ring has a markup of 100%, and the pearl necklace has a markup of 65%. I don't understand how to answer any of these questions I have post below:
What is the store's cost for the ring that has a selling price of $4,500?
What is the store's cost for the necklace that has a selling price of $2,500?
If a customer buys the ring and the necklace together, what would be the total purchase price?
How much did the customer save by purchasing the ring and the necklace together instead of buying them separately Please someone walk me thru these so I can bet a better understanding please. I don't understand how to find or figure this.
