  1. 95 dollars multiplied by .30 will give you answer.  Unless I misinterpreted your question.


  2. I'm assuming you mean that the store bought the book for $95 and they want to sell it for 30% more to make a profit (or at least that's what it sounds like by the way you worded the question). To solve this, you find 30% of $95 (by multiplying 95 and 0.30) then you add that number to 95 to find the price the store is selling it for.

    Hope this helps.
