Answer:

profit = $26 per sweater

Explanation:

A store buys 8 sweaters for $64 and sells them for $272. How much profit does the store make per sweater?

Each bought for 64/8 = $8 each

Each sold for 272/8 = $34 each

profit = selling price - bought price

profit = 34 - 8

profit = $26 per sweater
