Answer 1

They sold more in September... and they earned more by 30 dollars. Hows flvs? lol

Answer 2

They earned more money in September by $30 dollars

Explanation:

The selling price of each flower is .375 dollars per flower, so if they sold 200 more, and the class earns 40% of the selling point we jut have to make the multiplications to know how much they earned for each flower:

`.375x.40=.150`

No we just multiply that by the difference in the number of flowers sold:

`.150x200= 30`

And the answer is that they earned $30 more in september than in october.
