Hello

Cost = Selling price / (1 + Markup)
Cost = 64 / 1.45 = 44.14
At this point, profit = 64 - 44.14 = 19.86
And Markup = Profit / Cost = 19.86/44.14 = 45%
I'll tell you how to work it out but you do the sum yourself.
£64 is 145% so just work out what 100% is to find the buying in price.
The amount multiplied by 1.45
64 x 1.45 = 92.80
