A furniture dealer purchased a desk for $150 and then set the selling price equal to the purchase price plus a markup that was 40% of the selling price.
If the dealer sold the desk at the selling price, what was the amount of dealer's gross profit from the purchase and sale of the desk?

a $40
b $60
c $80
d $90
e $100

Not sure why i can't get the answer, any help appreciated!

x - selling price
150 - original price
0.4 = 40%

So just read the wording:

x = 150 + 0.4x
0.6x = 150
x = 250

250 - 150 = 100

right?

Dunno how I missed that line x = 150 + 0.4x

Thanks Yuri!
