Ashton bought 12 dog houses for 294 dollars. If he wants to sell it at a profit of 40%, how much will be the selling price of one dog house?

The correct option is D 34.30 dollars
Price of 12 dog houses = 294 dollars.

The profit percentage is 40%.

∴ 40% of 294
$=\frac{40}{100}\times 294=117.6\text{dollars}$

So, the total money made by Ashton
$=294\text{dollars}+117.6\text{dollars}$
$=411.6\text{dollars}$

∴ The selling price for one dog house
$=\frac{Totalprice}{Totalnumberofdoghouses}$

$=\frac{411.6\text{dollars}}{12}$

$=34.30dollars$

Hence, the selling price of one dog house is 34.30 dollars.
