You can put this solution on YOUR website!
She bought +100+%2B+200+=+300+ oranges
Selling at +3+ ea, she received
+300%2A3+=+900+
----------------------
She paid:
+%28+30%2F20+%29%2A100+=+150+
and
+%28+10%2F4+%29%2A200+=+500+
-----------------------
The total she paid was:
+150+%2B+500+=+650+
Her profit was:
+900+-+650+=+250+
C 250.00
