Answer:

  $86.21

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of the shoes ($125) is the sum of the wholesale price and the markup on that price:

  selling price = wholesale price + 0.45 × wholesale price

  125 = p + 0.45p = 1.45p

  p = 125/1.45 ≈ 86.21

The wholesale price of the shoes is about $86.21.
