Question

Marcus bought a $48 concert ticket through an online ticket broker. If the broker charged a 15% brokerage fee, how much did Marcus have to pay for the ticket?

Answer 1

Answer:

$55.20

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the brokerage fee

.15 * 48 = 7.2

The total cost of his ticket is the price of the ticket plus the brokerage fee

total cost = 48 + 7.2

               = $55.20
