Explore Markup and Discount Interactive Videos

Markup and discount problems represent fundamental applications of percentage calculations that students encounter in real-world shopping and business scenarios. These interactive videos guide learners through the step-by-step processes of calculating original prices from marked-up amounts, determining sale prices after discounts are applied, and finding the actual percentage increases or decreases in various contexts. The guided video lessons feature embedded questions that check student comprehension at critical moments, ensuring learners can distinguish between markup situations where prices increase from wholesale to retail, and discount scenarios where prices decrease from original to sale amounts. Through these comprehension checks and worked examples, students develop fluency in setting up proportional relationships, converting between fractions and percentages, and applying percentage formulas to solve multi-step problems involving consecutive markups or discounts.
