Question

A woman bought 210 oranges for GH¢65.00. she sold all of them at 3 for ¢20.00. how much profit did she make?

Answer 1

She made a profit of 1,335 cedis

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the profit made

Profit is selling price - cost price

Her cost price is 65 credits

For her selling price;

she sells 3 for 20 cedis

So the price she sold 210 will be;

(210 * 20)/3 = 1,400 cedis

So the profit made is;

1,400-65 = 1,335 cedis
