\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Revenue to Basit: \"400%280.92%29%2Ap\"
\n" ); document.write( "where p is the selling price, in dollars per kg.
\n" ); document.write( "Basit wants revenue to be \"400%280.75%29%2A%281.75%29\", which is 75 percent more than what he spent in \"cost paid\".\r
