Question

You spent $24 on baking ingredients, and you sell your cupcakes at a bake sale for $4 each. You sold 25 cupcakes. Did you make enough money to buy a $60 video game?

Answer 1

If you sold 25 cupcakes for $4 each, then you sold 25x4= $100 worth of cupcakes

But, you spent $24 on the ingredients, so you have to subtract that from the total amount you made

$100-$24= $76

After subtracting the cost of your baking ingredients, you can see that you made $76 dollars in profit

Therefore, you did make enough money to buy a $60 video game, as $76 is more than $60
