if Paul makes $1.22 selling popcorn and $2.62 selling soda, how many items of popcorn was sold?
439260
P + S = 27\n\n$1.22 * P + $2.62 * S = $44.14\n\nmultiply by 100\n\n122 * (27 - S) + 262 * S = 4414\n\n3294 - 122 * S + 262*S = 4414\n\n140 * S = 1120\n\nS = 8\n\nP = 27 - 8 = 19

Our school dance team made about  $1,000 in 2 weeks by going with the Krispy Kreme donuts fundraiser. We had about 10 people on the team and each person sold about 20 boxes or something like that. $6 dollars a box, or 50 cents a donut. It's much more effective to sell the whole box though. They'll most likely buy it.(oh and my math's a little off because not everybody sold what they were supposed to). It works really well though.

Say the 10 items sell for $10. You paid $10 for 11 items.\nyou paid $0.909 per item and sold it for $1.\n\nProfit is $.091 on $1.00  or 9.0909%

How much more are you selling the item for than what you paid for it?\n\nSay you obtained a widget for $100.  If you sold it for $150, then the [simple] profit is 50%, since 50/100 = .5 = 50%.\n\nIn reality you would have to take into account things like opportunity costs, wages, store costs (if a store is involved), licensing, taxes, etc.  But above is how you get a simple profit rate or percentage.

to solve first question you need to know how much it costs to manufacture a candy

depends on what product u r selling ....

Theater's make all their money on concessions (the ticket revenue goes back to the movie-makers).\n\nTo forecast, you need to determine/estimate what percentage of movie-goers buy popcorn, drinks, candy... and what the margin is on each.  Then multiply the average margin by the number of people that go to the movies per month (or year).\n\nGood Luck

That problem is the way you state the question.  They each paid $15 * 3 = $45.  Her returned $5, so the total paid to the store is $40.\n\nNow each got one dollar back, so they paid in $14*3 = $42, and the one boy has the extra $2 which needs to be split.  There is no extra dollar:  $42 - $2 = $40!!

Your best bet is to go to the Jiffypop website and click on popcorn information. They will give you the facts about their popcorn!!!! Good luck

2 and 4.\n\nKelly, I'd like to supersize my order, please.\n\nHey there, can I substitute a shake for my coke?

Okay, I think this is what you're asking: suppose merchant A sells 2 bananas for $5 and merchant B sells 3 bananas for $5. Then one of the merchants gets sick and the other switches to selling 5 bananas for $10, will the other mechant make more or less oney than if he had sold at his original price?\n\nIf merchant A sells at 5 for $10, he will lose money.\nIf merchant B sells at 5 for $10, he will gain money.\n\nJust compute the amount each merchant makes per banana - Merchant A makes $2.50/banana and merchant B makes $1.67/banana (rounded to nearest cent). If they sell 5 for $10, they would make $2/banana.

Trust Ray!   Apples cost 15 cents and Oranges cost 10.  Just write the two equations and it is clear.

Yes,\n\nThe equation relating p,s and c represents e very possible combination of T-shirts, caps and profit values for a funraiser. Suppose the class sets a profit goal of P=$600 . Finding cobinations of T-shirt and cap sales that meet this goal requires solving an equation with only two variables, s and c.\n\nA. Find five pairs of numbers for shirt and cap sales that will allow the students to make a $600 profit exactly.
