Solution:

Given, In August, Ralph bought a new set of golf clubs that cost $565.  

The cost of the clubs was marked up to $650 in October.  

We have to find which proportion can be used to find what percent of the original price the new price is, if p represents the unknown percent?

So it will be,

Whenever you get results like these, you just need to round to the nearest hundredths place, which is 86.9%.

Hence, the percentage is 86.9%
