You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question and so you should ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about – then I will help you.
From what you have typed, it would seem that the total cost of producing the tool is $50. Given that they want to make a margin of 20% on sales, then the cost must be 80% of the selling price and so the selling price must be the cost divided by 80%.
