You can put this solution on YOUR website! 7000 is how many times 500? Easier yet, how many 509 in 1000? I say 2, right? Do you agree that 500 x 2 = 1000?
How many 1000 in 7000? Maths says 7 because 1000 x 7 = 7000
.
Since there are 2 500 in 1000, there are 2 x 7 500's in 7000. You should get 14000 which is the profit
