Formula

As given
Clara Schumann is buying bagels for her coworkers, She buys a dozen bagels priced at $5.49 a dozen.
i.e
Selling price of a dozen bagels is $5.49 .
The bakery's cost for making the bagels is $2.25 per dozen.
i.e
Cost price of a dozen bagels is $2.25 .
Putting all the values in the formula
[tex]Mark\ up\ percentage = \frac{(5.49-2.25)\times 100}{2.25}[/tex]
[tex]Mark\ up\ percentage = \frac{3.24\times 100}{2.25}[/tex]
[tex]Mark\ up\ percentage = \frac{32400\times 100}{225\times 100}[/tex]
[tex]Mark\ up\ percentage = \frac{32400}{225}[/tex]
Markup percentage = 144 %
Therefore the markup percentage is 144% .
