total cost is $\"25%2850%29=highlight%281250%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "total amount received is $\"22%2863%29=highlight%281386%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "returns cost him $55 but gets refunded $50 for each calculator so in essence it only cost him $10 to return the two calculators. so $\"10%2B1250=highlight%281260%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "now subtract total cost from amount received
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1386-1260=highlight_green%28126%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
