Question

hoolMathematics 5 points You and three friends own a paint shop. The shop's profit was $536 in the first month. You always divide the profits equally. In two months, each of you had made $224. How much profit did the shop make in the second month?

Answer 1

The profit in month 2 was $360

Explanation:

first you divide 536 by 4 which is 134

then you subtract 134 from 224 and get 90

then you multiply 90 by 4 (to represent the 4 people) and then you get the 2nd months profit which is 360
