    Hello!

    \large\boxed{\$104}

    We can write an expression to display this scenario:

    $347 is $35 more than 3 times the wholesale cost (x), so:

    3x + 35 = 347

    Subtract 35 from both sides to isolate x:

    3x + 35 – 35 = 347 – 35

    3x = 312

    Divide both sides by 3:

    3x/3 = 312/3

    x = $104
