\n" ); document.write( "In one year this guy expects to sell 5,000,000 candies in which he gets 1 shilling per 1,000.
\n" ); document.write( "So...
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%285000000+%2F1000%29\"$ will equal the total number of shillings he will earn, right?
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%285000000+%2F1000%29\"$ = 5000
\n" ); document.write( "1 shilling is worth $0.14.
\n" ); document.write( "So...
\n" ); document.write( "5000 x $0.14 = $700.00
\n" ); document.write( "So he will earn $700.00 in one year.
