Question 1067873: a woman buys 270 oranges for $1800 and sells 5 at $40.what is her profit
Answer by stuylin(8)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 270 oranges / 5 oranges = 54 sets of 5 oranges
Since she's selling every set of 5 for $40, and you have 54 sets, the total amount of money she will get back is 54*$40 which is $2160.
To find the profit, you then subtract $1800 from $2160 to get a $360 profit.
