You can put this solution on YOUR website!
d%2Ft+ = Safemart's selling price for 1 turkey.
( if they were all the same price )
----------------------------
+d%2Ft+-+2+ = Good Cafe's buying price per turkey
+t%2A%28+d%2Ft+-+2+%29+=+1000+ = Good Cafe's buying price for +t+ turkeys
-----------------------
+d+-+2t+=+1000+
+2t+=+d+-+1000+
+t+=+d%2F2+-+500+ answer
------------------------
Hope I got it
