Jimmy made a 15% profit on the sale of a custom designed boat, and the original cost of the boat was $15,000. the boat sold for how much?  

the boat was sold for $17,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Jimmy made a 15% profit, that means that  the 15% of the cost is going to be his profit, so the 15% of $15,000 is:

$15,000(0.15)= $2,250

If his profit is 2,250, the price of the boat is going to be the initial cost plus the profit. So:

Price=$15,000 + $2,250 = $ 17,250

Then, the boat was sold for $17,250

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:
