Question

A family earns $523 from the yard sale. They pay 45 in advertising fees. What is the family profit from yard sale?

Answer 1

528 -45 would be your answer

Answer 2

$478

Explanation:

To calculate the profit, we have to subtract the expenses from the revenues.

P = Revenues - expenses

We know the family gained $523 from the yard sale.

We also know they had to pay $45 for advertising.

So, the net different is the profit for the family:

P = $523 - $45 = $478.

That was a very good yard sale!, I hope mine went that well.
