Let's solve the question step-by-step:

1. Identify the Initial Parameters:
- The jacket costs \[tex]$440. - The markup percentage is 24%. 2. Convert the Percentage to Decimal: - A percentage of 24% is equivalent to 24/100 in decimal form. - \( \frac{24}{100} = 0.24 \). 3. Calculate the Markup Amount: - To find the markup amount, multiply the cost of the jacket by the markup rate. - Markup amount = Cost of jacket * Markup percentage. - Markup amount = 440 * 0.24. 4. Perform the Calculation: - \( 440 \times 0.24 = 105.60 \). Thus, the markup on the new \$[/tex]440 jacket is \[tex]$105.60. So the correct answer is: b. \$[/tex]105.60
