60 - 3 = 57\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you're looking for the original purchase price, you'd just divide by 2. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Each cassette was sold for $20.84 cents.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "THE PROVE:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "57 cassettes at $20.84 each = $1187.88, which can be rounded to the nearest unit to become $1188 (the profit made by the store).\r
