Answer
$8.13
Work Step by Step
The first step in solving this equation is to find out how much it costs to manufacture one bell, so you will divide the total cost by the number of bells, which will get you 65/12. Then since they want to get a 50% profit, multiply this 65/12 by 1.5. Your end result will be 8.125, rounding this number to the nearest hundredth will get you 8.13.
