Question

A youth group is making and selling sandwiches to raise money. The cost to make each sandwich is h dollars. The group sells 150 sandwiches for a total of (150h+450) dollars. How much profit does the group earn for each sandwich sold?

Answer 1

Profit earn by group for each sandwich sold=$ 3

Explanation:

We are given that

Cost to make each sandwich= h dollar

Total selling price of 150 sandwiches=(150h+450 )dollars

We have to find the profit earn by group on each sandwich sold.

Total cost for making 150 sandwiches=
`150* h`

Total cost for making 150 sandwiches=150 h

Now,

Profit made by group on 150 sandwiches

=150h+450-150h

=450 dollars

Profit earn by group for each sandwich sold=
`(450)/(150)`

Profit earn by group for each sandwich sold=$ 3
