Question 831783: Winston buys eggs from a village 120 kilometres from the town where he sells them. He pays 50p (50 pence) for every 12 eggs he buys. He also pays a driver 25p per kilometre to bring the eggs to the town every day. He then adds 25% to his costs and sells the eggs. If Winston sells 20 boxes of eggs per day and each box has 144 eggs, how much profit does he make after 5 days? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 120*2*25=6000 mileage
20*12*50=12000 eggs
18000 *1.25=22500 per day 4500 profit
5*18000 *.25=22500
profit 22500 after 5 days
