SA SUSUNOD...
Isaisip na kapag may nakita kang words na mark-up o tax, kailangan mong i-add ang original price sa answer mo sa unang equation.
Pero kapag discount lang, subtraction na ean.
May instances din na commission o save, ang kailangan lang doon ay ang na-compute mo sa pagmu-multiply ng original price at percentage.

Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation no. 1:
10 000.00 10% = 0.10 or 0.1
× 0.10
———————
100.00
Explanation no.2:
P40 000 x 0.15 = P6 000 15% = 0.15
P40 000 - P6 000 = P34 000
Explanation no. 3:
P850 x 0.10 = P935
10% = 0.10 VAT (Value Added Tax)
Explanation no. 4:
P10 000 x 0.095 = P950
9.5% = 0.095 per year
(at the end of one year)
P10 000 + P950 = P10 950
Explanation no. 5:
P60 000 x 0.05 = P3 000
5% = 0.05
Explanation no. 6:
P 2 220 x 0.15 = 333
P 333 + P 1 887 = P 2 220
Explanation no. 7:
P10 000 x 0.12 = P1 200
Explanation no. 8:
P 55.00 x 0.10 = P 5.50
P 55.00 + P 5.50 = P 60.50
Explanation no. 9:
Original price: P 1 850.00
Sale: 24% off
P 1 850.00 x 0.24 = P 444.00
P 1 850.00 - P 444.00 = P 1 406.00
Explanation no. 10:
P 24 000.00 x 0.12 = P 2 880
P 24 000.00 + P 2 880 = P 26 880.00
