Answer

# Explanation: ## Step1: Calculate the markup amount Markup amount = Cost × Markup percentage. The cost is $222 and the markup percentage is 90% or 0.9. So, Markup amount = $222×0.9 = $199.8$. ## Step2: Calculate the sticker - price Sticker price = Cost+Markup amount. Cost = $222 and Markup amount = $199.8. So, Sticker price = $222 + 199.8=$421.8$. # Answer: $421.8$
