Help please...


Lyndi has started a home business making and selling all natural

goat milk soaps.


1. If the cost of the materials for a basic bar of soap is $2.50 and

Lyndi sells each bar of soap for $4.50, what is the markup percent?


2. Lyndi sells intricately shaped holiday soaps for $9 each.

After each holiday, she marks the related soaps down to

$6.75. What percent discount should she advertise on her

social media site?
