Answer:

64.0%

Explanation:

First step is to find the total cost to make the pins. The pins cost 1.10 to make at 1000 pins

1.10 * 1000 = 1100

This is the total cost

Now we need to find how much money was made


35% were given to charity (no money made)

That means .35 * 1000 = 350 were given away

1000-350 = 650 are left


60% of those are sold at 3 each

.60 * 650 = 390

That means 390 were sold at 3 each

3 * 390 = 1170 were made on these

40% were sold at 2 for 5 or 2.50 each

.40 * 650 = 260

There were 260 sold at 2.50

260 * 2.5 = 650

The total money that came in = 1170+650 = 1820

Profit = money in minus cost

Remember the cost was 1100

Profit = 1820-1110

Profit = 710

Percent profit = profit/ cost

=710/1110

=.63963964

To one decimal place

64.0%
